As a ceasefire brings an official end to the 12-Day War between Israel and Iran, former U.S. President Donald Trump declared:
“This is a War that could have gone on for years, and destroyed the entire Middle East, but it didn’t, and never will!”
While the ceasefire marks a pause in open conflict, Garry Kasparov warns that without a long-term strategy, the cycle of escalation will continue. He argues for a non-military path to regime change—one that empowers the Iranian people through diplomacy, communication, and international coordination.
Kasparov’s plan includes:
Supporting a unified Iranian opposition,
Expanding Farsi-language media,
Clear messaging that separates the regime from its people,
And a democratic vision for Iran’s future.
“This is not a game of chess,” Kasparov says. “You either win or lose.”
