US Expulsion Form West Asia Inevitable - IRG

By Staff, Agencies

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard [IRG] issued a statement on the anniversary of Sacred Defense, saying that the United States has no choice but to withdraw from the West Asia region.

The statement was issued to commemorate the anniversary of the Iraqi Saddam regime-imposed war on Iran and the beginning of Sacred Defense by the Iranian nation against the Baathist regime of Saddam, which was sponsored and fully backed by Western powers between 1980 and 1988.

“After 41 years since the start of the imposed war, which was sponsored and supported by the world powers, the nation has grown more resilient and the country has solidified its defensive power,” the statement read.

It added further that the imposed war ended while even a handspan of Iranian soil was not given to the enemy.

The western powers continued to conspire against Iran over the past 33 years since the end of the imposed war, the statement also read.

The IRG additionally noted that the power of hegemonic forces such as the United States, which supported Saddam's regime, was declining while they made wrong calculations and invaded Islamic countries of Iraq and Afghanistan.

"But today, after more than twenty years [since the occupation of Afghanistan by the US and NATO], we are witnessing the humiliating escape of the Americans from Afghanistan and at God's willing, we will see their expulsion from West Asia in the near future," the IRG statement concluded.
