TEHRAN, Feb.8, (ST)-The Supreme Leader of the Iranian Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei said that US is now suffering from the blows inflicted on it from where it never even imagined.
He said that today, two American presidents, the present and the previous ones, have joined hands to tarnish what is left of the US dignity and they are successful at that.
The Leader made the remarks on Tuesday when he received the commanders, officers and staff members of Iran Army Air Force.
Meanwhile, an Iranian official said that the United States is experiencing failure in defeating the Iranian nation; so, the White House cannot set condition for the Islamic Republic on negotiation.
Saeed Jalili, representative of Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei in the Supreme National Security Council (SNSC), addressed students in Tehran on Tuesday, noting that the enemy sought to put economic and military pressure on Iran, but following its failure to divert the Islamic Revolution, it wants to resort to propagate its false analysis.
The one, who is experiencing defeat, cannot set condition for Iran, because it is similar to the situation that the Nazi Germany wanted to call for negotiations after end of the World War II, which seems completely ridiculous, Jalili stressed.
The former nuclear negotiator went on to say that officials and people should avoid being affected by false implications, and that the West particularly the US acknowledged that the maximum pressure imposed by the Trump administration failed to bear fruit and decrease Iran’s oil export to zero, while the Islamic Republic exports 1.2 million bpd; so, it is important to be vigilant when it comes to realizing realities on the ground.
Jalili also noted that this year’s Ten-Day Fajr celebrations (43rd anniversary of the Islamic Revolution’s victory) is of utmost importance, because the foe has explicitly declared that the maximum pressure on Iran doomed to failure.
The 2015 nuclear deal also known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) is a document that proves the Iranian nation is right, because Iran complied with its commitments under the agreement, but the West especially the US did not abide by the contract they signed, he added.
Moreover, former US president Donald Trump ordered assassination of Iran’s top major general, but millions of Iranians and other nations held mourning ceremonies to commemorate the revered martyr.
