US plots in region will face crushing defeat: IRGC commander
The chief commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Major General Hossein Salami says the United States is unable to implement whatever plots it has concocted for the region and they will “definitely fail.”
“The US has 50 percent of the world’s military power but it is facing many internal problems,” Salami said in an address to a conference of university professors of volunteer Basij forces from across the country in the city of Mashhad on Tuesday.
He said certain videos circulating online show the “collapse of humanity” in the United States. “There is no one to pay attention to the [people’s] problems,” he said, adding that many European countries also face similar problems.
“Today, the US cannot implement whatever plot it has in the region and its plots will definitely fail,” the IRGC commander said.
Salami also maintained that Iran is a frontrunner in many technologies, saying, “We have even surpassed the world’s top powers in the field of air defense, to the extent that some superpowers are buying our weapons and offering joint cooperation [with Iran].”
Elsewhere in his remarks, the IRGC commander noted that sanctions have caused few difficulties for Iran, emphasizing that the country enjoys great capacities and potential and is able to overcome all of its problems by relying on its beliefs and the guidelines of Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei.
In Iran, he said, people support each other in various incidents due to the culture of self-sacrifice and the officials also stand by the nation.
