Tehran, YJC. Head of Quds Corps says that it will be a step toward Iran’s interests if democracy is established anywhere in the Islamic world.
Commander of the Quds Corps Major General Qasem Soleimani
speaking to the Press Outlook conference said "It will be in the interest of Iran
and to the detriment of the West if democracy is established anywhere in the Islamic
world.”
He considered the heightening of enmities against the region
as a result of the growing influence of the Islamic republic of Iran and said "Methods
such as creating ethnic clashes, the erosion of the resistance front in Lebanon,
strengthening the Shiite-Sunni opposition, and the growth of extremist, Takfiri
groups against the Islamic Republic follow a common goal, that is to weaken the
status of Iran in the region.
He added that the wisdom of the Supreme Leader is the
backbone of the strong Iran in regional equations and said "We must truly
define the logic of the Islamic Republic for the public opinion.”
The commander of the Quds Corps stressed "The real problem
with Syria according to the West and Zionism is not extremism, the rule of a
minority Alavi, or democracy, but the reality is that the West knows that the
strength of the regional resistance undoubtedly owes to Syria.”
Major General Soleimani said that the resistance serves the
interests of Iran and added "The constant victories of the Syrian Army in the
past one year have brought on the recent barrage on Syria from all sides.”
He pointed out that the resistance front, including the
Lebanese Hezbollah is the real source of benefit to Iran in the present and
future and said "The anti-US, anti-Zionism, and anti-extremism energy of the
regional nations is being released, a fact which boosts Iran’s status day by
day.”
