Iran response to make enemies regret acts: Cmdr.
A senior Iranian commander has highlighted the Iranian military's full preparedness to defend the country against any threats, saying Iran’s decisive response will make the enemies regret their actions.
“The power and readiness of the Iranian Armed Forces is such that can make any aggressor regret its action," Commander of the Iranian Army's Ground Forces Brigadier General Ahmad Reza Pourdastan said on Wednesday.
Pourdastan underlined that the Iranian nation and the country’s military forces have managed to thwart plots hatched by the United States against the country.
He said the US occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan and the presence of American forces in the Persian Gulf waters were aimed at putting pressure on the Islamic Republic.
The Iranian commander referred to Washington’s support for the ISIL Takfiri terrorist groups currently wrecking havoc on Syria and Iraq as another scheme to pressurize Iran.
“Today, Americans have changed [their] strategy, and by forming and supporting Takfiri terrorist groups they are pursuing their sinister scheme in Iraq and Syria and other Muslim countries and commit crimes against humanity,” said Pourdastan.
Despite its defense breakthroughs and self-sufficiency in producing important military equipment and systems, the Islamic Republic has repeatedly assured other nations, especially its neighbors, that its military might poses no threat to other countries, stating that its defense doctrine is based on deterrence.
