Iran rejects U.S.-Israeli order
Iranian Armed Forces senior spokesman Brig. Gen. Abolfazl Shekarchi said Iran would not allow its adversaries to reestablish the regional order they seek in West Asia.
Shekarchi said the United States had resorted to fuel smuggling to escape the quagmire it had created for itself in West Asia, and he questioned whether maritime piracy, theft and fuel smuggling could prevent what he described as Washington’s inevitable defeat.
Shekarchi said the U.S. propaganda campaign and repeated statements by American officials about control over the Strait of Hormuz would not change realities on the ground.
Shekarchi said neither psychological operations nor media claims would be able to shield Washington from the consequences of its failed strategies, and he stressed that defeat could not be concealed through propaganda and psychological warfare.
Shekarchi said Iran would not allow the regional order sought by the United States and Israel to be reestablished in West Asia.
Strait of Hormuz and propaganda
Shekarchi said the propaganda war and repeated statements by American officials about control over the Strait of Hormuz would not change realities on the ground. Shekarchi said psychological operations and media claims would not save Washington from the consequences of its failed strategies. Shekarchi said hiding defeat behind propaganda and psychological warfare was not possible, and he said the truths on the ground could not be changed by noise.
Shekarchi said the latest insults directed at civilization, history, and the Iranian people by deluded and foolish American officials reflected desperation and increased the determination of the brave Iranian people. Shekarchi said the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran would decisively defend national interests, the country’s security, and the integrity of the Islamic Iran, and would impose defeat on the enemies with a strong onslaught.
Regional states urged to exit
Shekarchi called on regional countries to move out from under what he described as the United States’ ineffective security umbrella.
“Washington is even incapable of providing security for itself in the region, let alone the security of others.”
Shekarchi said Washington was incapable of securing even its own interests in the region, let alone providing security for others.
Shekarchi said continued reliance on the purported U.S. security umbrella would amount to accepting the high costs of a wrong calculation and decision.
Shekarchi said regional countries had experienced the ineffectiveness of the U.S. security umbrella in practice, and he said it was now time for them to learn from that experience and not put themselves in danger by relying on what he described as the “rotten rope” of U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Shekarchi said, “We will not allow the regional order envisioned by the US and the Zionist regime to be restored in West Asia region,” and he added that Washington was incapable of ensuring even its own security in the region.
