In my eyes, we are at total war with the US, Israel and Europe, Pezeshkian told Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei's official website.
France, Britain and Germany have supported UN sanctions against Iran linked to the country's nuclear energy program. And six months ago, Iran's nuclear energy facilities were attacked by Israel and the United States.
"This war is worse than the one Iraq started against us. When you look at it more closely, it's much more complex and difficult," he said.
Iraq invaded Iran in 1980. The war lasted until 1988 and claimed hundreds of thousands of lives on both sides.
