Western Powers Growing Weaker on A Daily Basis

Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Major General Mohammad Baqeri underlined that signs of the decline of the Western powers are crystal clear and there are indication of a shift in the balance of power from the West to the East.

Maj. Gen. Baqeri made the remarks in a meeting with Pakistan’s Chief of the Army General Asim Munir in Tehran on Saturday.

“Today, America is weaker than it was 10 years ago and the future of the world will be different from the past,” Baqeri stressed.

Pointing to the declining power of the United States and the Western world, he noted the shifting global power axis towards Asia and the East. He slammed the actions of global arrogance as signs of weakness and desperation, contrary to achieving a better future for the world.

Major General Baqeri considered the occupation of Afghanistan by the United States and their irresponsible withdrawal as a significant issue impacting the security of both Iran and Pakistan.

During the meeting, Iran’s military chief highlighted the importance of regional security and stability and the transformation of shared borders into economic borders, and said that Iran and Pakistan should enhance military relations and boost joint defense-security cooperation in the region.

The top general added that the record shows the two neighboring countries can count on the improvement of collaboration in various fields.

He underscored the need for sustainable stability in the border regions of both countries and the establishment of mechanisms for cooperation in this regard.
