Iran MPs declare support for IRGC against US measures
IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency
Tehran, Oct 10, IRNA -- Iran's parliament national security and foreign policy commission declared support for the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) against the US threatening rhetoric.
The commission in a statement released on Tuesday condemned the US officials' approach towards IRGC, and called their threat for blacklisting it a 'foolish' idea.
It referred to Iran's parliament bill to confront 'America's terrorist and adventurous actions' in the region which was approved overwhelmingly in the parliament recently and said, 'This commission supports all IRGC's reciprocating measures against the US forces which are supportive of terrorist groups according to the bill.'
The parliament national security and foreign policy commission hailed the advisory role of the IRGC in establishment of security in Iraq, Syria and fighting Daesh(ISIS) in the region.
If IRGC did not help, this sensitive region was involved in a deep crisis, the statement added.
