IRGC Commander: US in Strategic Dead-End in Confrontation against Iran

Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari said the different plots hatched by the enemies against Iran have all failed and the US is now facing a strategic deadlock against Iran.
“Today, the Americans are in a strategic dead-end and have experienced all possible options and strategies against the Islamic Revolution, but couldn’t attain their desired goals,” Jafari said, addressing a meeting of the Armed Forces’ supreme policy-making board in Tehran on Wednesday.

“The US capabilities can no more be expanded and their capacities for initiating a change have reached the level of saturation, meaning that the US is left with no more option but admitting the Islamic Republic of Iran’s real power,” he added.

Jafari pointed to the nuclear talks between Iran and the world powers, including the US, and said Iran has reached a reliable level of deterrence power, and its strong diplomacy in the nuclear talks is the result of the Islamic Revolution’s aspirations and the country’s security and defensive power and might.

In relevant remarks late November, Head of the Supreme Leader’s Office Hojjatoleslam Mohammad Mohammadi Golpaigani lauded the Iranian Armed Forces’ might and power, and said they play a deterrent role against enemies’ plots to launch a military strike against the country.

“The Armed Forces’ preparedness and power has thwarted the enemies’ plots,” Mohammadi Golpaigani said in Soloqan city near Tehran on Sunday.

He underlined the Iranian Armed Forces’ deterrent role and their capabilities, and said if the enemies, spearheaded by the US, were confident that they could overthrow the Islamic Republic and destroy Iran, they would never hesitate even one minute to launch a military attack against the country.
