Wednesday, 23 September 2020 (YJC)_ Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps claims IRGC is boosting Iran weapons' capabilities.
In his remarks in a ceremony for delivering drones and choppers to the IRGC navy in Bandar Abbas, the Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) Major General Hossein Salami, praises Iran’s achievements regarding weapon’s capabilities.
He highlighted in his remarks that "The US has not given up on its expansionist strategy and is seeking to impose its dominance on other countries,".
"This is the difference between leaders who govern the world with wisdom and those who lack wisdom. Thoughtful leaders who rule the world wisely multiply their friends, but leaders lacking political wisdom who are in decline, increase their enemies," he added.
Salami, then, pinpointed, "The US president says he wanted to assassinate the Syrian President, which means the end of the political season of a power that openly wants to assassinate the legitimate president of a country,".
Referring to the role of the United States in normalizing the relations between the UAE and Bahrain with the Zionist regime, Salami said, "They make a relationship between the rulers of the reactionary regimes and the Zionists so that the Islamic Ummah will hate them."
He continued, "Can American officials walk alone on one of the streets of a small Islamic country today? They cannot because all nations are against them."
Elsewhere in his speech, IGGC chief emphasized "We are getting stronger every day,".
Sating that even the American people are now chanting the slogan "Down with USA", Salami said, "We see nothing but smoke, fire, poverty, racism, and the polarization and lack of freedom in the US."
"On the contrary, we are firmly and steadily increasing our power here, and we will never stop. We are increasing the range of our weapons," he highlighted.
IRGC chief went on to say, "Today, our navy is not just limited to the surface of the seas and it is an air-based sea force which is utilizing different kinds of drones, helicopters and seaplanes, and at the same time enjoys considerable power in the field of submarines."
