Iranian Defense Minister Due in Parliament on WeekendSeyed Hossein Naqavi Hosseini told Tasnim that the defense minister is slated to come to parliament on Sunday and hold talks on a range of issues.

He added that Brigadier General Hatami will also brief the parliamentary commission’s members on the Defense Ministry’s performance and the latest defense achievements of the Islamic Republic.

Iranian military experts and technicians have in recent years made great headways in manufacturing a broad range of indigenous equipment, making the armed forces self-sufficient in the arms sphere.

Iranian officials have repeatedly underscored that the country will not hesitate to strengthen its military capabilities, including its missile power, which are entirely meant for defense, and that Iran’s defense capabilities will be never subject to negotiations.

Back in February 2018, Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei called for efforts to maintain and boost Iran’s defense capabilities, hitting back at the enemies for disputing the country’s missile program.

“Without a moment of hesitation, the country must move to acquire whatever is necessary for defense, even if the whole world is opposed to it,” Ayatollah Khamenei said at the time.
