TEHRAN (Defapress) - In a nightly inspection of the readiness of one of the armed forces' units, Major General Seyyed Abdolrahim Mousavi, Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces, stated in his speech: "The Iranian nation has stood firm against America's arrogant and aggressive nature from the past to the present and has forced it to successive defeats. Including in the recent complex, multifaceted, and terrorist war, they destroyed the enemy's calculations."

Major General Mousavi continued: "Over the past 47 years, the Iranian nation has repeatedly proven that Iran cannot be swallowed, and in the end, that stubborn one, who does not learn a lesson, will be shut."

The Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces stated: Those who have been shouting for several months and promoting the proposition of a “weak Iran” are now forced to either retract their words or receive a regional slap from Iranian power.

He added: Apparently, they have forgotten that in 1970, the Iranian people stood against the world of infidelity for eight years in difficult circumstances and smashed their heads against a rock. In the imposed 12-day war, they destroyed the 20-year plan of the United States and the Zionist regime and defeated them. In the January riots, they also thwarted the quasi-coup plan of the American-Zionist ISIS-like enemy.

Major General Mousavi said: What the enemies of this nation, especially the United States, should know is that the motivation of our armed forces to fight against the enemy has never been the same as it is today. The bloodlust of the 13th day remains, and the slightest mistake will open our hands to action. The world will see a different face of a strong Iran; Then no American will be safe, and the fire of the region will burn America and its allies.

The Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces stated: If a war breaks out, the men and women of the Resistance will also wipe out the footprints of strangers from the region with fire therapy.

He added: Those who talk about a naval blockade should review the lessons of geography and geopolitics once again; Iran is powerful and vast, a country that cannot be besieged.

Major General Mousavi said: After the 12-day war and the continuation of the insidious American-Zionist actions, we revised the country's defense doctrine and changed it to the offensive doctrine of the armed forces, based on the approach of lightning-fast and wide-ranging operations, by adopting disjointed and crushing military strategies. Accordingly, our action will be swift, decisive, and far from the calculations of the United States.

He stated: The Islamic Republic of Iran, relying on the divine promise and relying on the resilient nation and the powerful and prepared armed forces, under the unique leadership of Imam Khamenei, will not show the slightest negligence towards the enemies.

The Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces emphasized: We only think of victory and have no fear of the noise of the Golden calf and the apparent arrogance of the enemy, and we are fully prepared to confront and strike a slap of revenge.
