Speaking at a meeting of several IRGC Ground Force commanders on Tuesday, Major General Hossein Salami said the Iranian armed forces had been successful in developing a deterrent force against the adversary.
He said Iran’s defense system is the result of “hard and heavy experience” in the face of all sophisticated and non-advanced opponents in the contemporary age.
Iran has faced a variety of challenges in recent decades, the top commander remarked.
The adversary has been let down by Iran’s development of an “endless power”, he said, adding that Iran’s deterrent capability extends beyond missiles and drones.
Salami also argued that Iran’s “small enemies” are part of the bigger enemies’ strategies and act as mere pawns in their hands.
He went on to say that due to Iran’s intrinsic capacities the enemies employ proxies against the country, and they are fully aware that any direct conflict with the Iranian military forces will result in “major suicide” for them.
