IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency
Orumiyeh, West Azarbaijan Prov, April 7, IRNA -- Iran’s Minister of Defense and Armed Forces Logistics Ahmad Vahidi said Wednesday that the Zionist regime is by no means able to take any military action against Iran.
Vahidi made the remarks while talking to reporters in the capital city of this northwestern province.
"If the illegitimate regime of Israel takes any military action against Iran, Tehran's reaction to this will be in a way that there would be no sign of Israel on the world map," Vahidi stressed.
He said while Zionist regime possessed nuclear warheads, the world hegemonic powers supported its bullying policy and, on the other hand, accused Iran of having nuclear weapons despite the fact that Tehran’s nuclear activities are completely peaceful.
Iran’s defense minister termed US and Israel as two hegemonic powers that are bullying into the world countries and making threats against the defenseless people worldwide.
Asked about the delay in delivery of the S-300 missile system to Iran by Russia, the minister said that Mosscow would make the delivery in due time as Russia is committed to its obligations.
The Iranian minister of defense is in West Azarbaijan Province as part of a delegation headed by President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in line with the third round of the president's provincial tours.
