IRGC Cmdr.: Enemy Plots against Iran Doomed To Failure

Local Editor

Deputy Commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps [IRGC] Brigadier General Hossein Salami said all enemy plots against the Iranian nation are doomed to failure.

The senior commander further stressed that the enemy is seeking to strike a blow to Iran but it will suffer a heavy defeat.

He underlined that the economic war is the enemy's only way to pressure Iran but it will not achieve a success and it will only strengthen the Islamic Republic.

Brigadier General Salami described the US as a declining power.

Earlier in May, US President Donald Trump announced that Washington would pull out of the nuclear deal signed with Iran and reinstate sanctions which had been lifted under the accord.

The first round of the sanctions snapped back into place in August, with the second round which will aim the energy and oil sector taking effect on November 5.

This is while other signatories to the deal [UK, France, Germany, China and Russia] have thus far criticized Washington's unilateral move and have repeatedly stressed their commitment to it.
