Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif says the Islamic Republic will not allow enemies to launch an act of aggression against the country’s territory.

Visiting different sectors of the Iranian defense industries on Wednesday, Zarif praised various achievements made by the Islamic Republic in the defense sector over the past few years.

“[Our] defense achievements will not allow any country to be tempted to penetrate into Iran’s borders,” Zarif said.

“Every Iranian takes pride in the country’s progress … and scientific and technical capabilities. Our defense industry has made vast and considerable achievements for not only the defense of the country but also the development of various other industries as well,” he added.

In recent years, Iran has made great achievements in its defense sector and attained self-sufficiency in producing essential military equipment and systems.

Iran has also conducted several military drills to enhance the defense capabilities of its armed forces and to test modern military tactics and equipment.

The Islamic Republic has repeatedly said that its military might poses no threat to other countries, reiterating that its defense doctrine is based on deterrence.
