Tehran (ISNA) - Iran's Army Commander Major General Abdolrahim Mousavi said Iran's enemies are looking forward to destroy the "we-can" spirit among people and reiterated that Iran doesn't seek war with any country but "it has learned defense very well".

Stressing that US has a "long-standing grudge" against Iran, General Mousavi said, "The enemy hasn't given up pressure and conspiracy, so bolstering people's resistance and public endurance against the greed of enemy strategically matters".

"As it has been frequently announced, Iran doesn't seek war with any country but it has learned defense very well. As the Supreme Leader said, the era of hit and run is now over, and the US knows that if it gets entangled in military action against Iran, it will receive much harsher blows," he added, mentioning the recent statement by Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei.
