IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency
Tabriz, Feb 11, IRNA -- Deputy Commander of Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Brigadier General Hossein Salami said that there is no negotiating table for solving regional issues not attended by Iran as an effective power.
Addressing ralliers on February 11 in Tabriz, he added that today, Iran has an upper hand over the enemies.
Hailing massive turnout nationwide, Salami said that the Islamic Revolution 1979 defeated an unparalleled Emperor through public uprising and Imam Khomeini's guidelines and put an end to the US arrogant policies.
Referring to the eight-year imposed war, the commander said that world big powers thought that the Iranian nation were not able to defend against an outside attack and they will surrender but the Iranian nation bravely stood against all threats under the leadership of Imam Khomeini.
The Iranian nation eventually emerged victorious from the imposed war without leaving an iota of its soil to the enemy, Salami said.
The military official further noted that when the enemy got disappointed from war and military means, they turned to economic sanctions. But the Iranian nation also left them behind successfully and despite sanctions, it paved the way for progress and prosperity.
