Tehran, Aug 20, IRNA -- The Iranian Armed Forces have reached such a high level of military power that they are able to defend the country in any situation, a statement released in commemoration of Defense Industry Day said here on Saturday.
The statement noted that while the enemies of the Islamic Republic are deprived of any motive to attack Iran, the production of major strategic military equipment have put an end to Tehran's reliance on foreign countries and made it more self-sufficient.
“Unfair sanctions imposed on Iran by enemies including the US, have serves to strengthen the nation's self-reliance and brought about big progresses for Iranian defense industry,” the statement said.
It added that updating systems, equipment and logistics with an aim of defending the country on land, at sea and air has been the strategic goal of the Defense Ministry resulting in strengthening Iran's deterrent power.
