A representative from Iran has assessed the total damages from the war at 270 billion dollars, with the nation's president asserting that the only way to resolve the conflict is through reparations. Additionally, Iran is pursuing the release of state funds that are currently frozen in the United States as part of any potential peace agreement. This remarkable request — exceeding the annual GDP of many nations — illustrates the extent of the devastation Iran faced due to the US-Israeli attacks in February 2026, which resulted in the death of the Supreme Leader and significantly impaired Iranian military capabilities. The Trump administration has yet to address the reparations request, with President Trump indicating that Iran can initiate its rebuilding efforts under the conditional ceasefire.
