IRGC Navy Commander Reveals Cutting-Edge Features of the Shahid Bagheri Aircraft Carrier

Iran Asserts Ability to Target Enemy Bases Anywhere in the World

In a bold declaration reflecting Iran’s unwavering defensive strategy, IRGC Navy Commander Admiral Alireza Tangsiri emphasized that any hostile action against Iran will trigger a decisive retaliatory response. This assertion underscores Iran’s commitment to maintaining its sovereignty and defense capabilities, particularly regarding its missile arsenal and support for Resistance groups.

During a recent statement, Tangsiri firmly rejected the notion of engaging in negotiations concerning Iran’s missile capabilities. He stated, “Iran will never negotiate over its missiles or the capabilities of the Resistance Front.” This sentiment highlights Iran’s determination to uphold its military strength while simultaneously promoting peaceful relations with its neighboring countries.

In his remarks, Tangsiri reassured regional nations that Iran does not present a threat, saying, “We always extend a hand of friendship to the countries in the region. As Muslims, we do not pose any threat to our neighboring countries.” This declaration aims to position Iran as a peace-seeking nation while maintaining a robust defense posture.

Despite asserting that Iran does not seek war, Tangsiri made it clear that any attack on Iranian interests or citizens would be met with a strong response. He stated, “We do not seek war and do not wish for it. However, if the enemy tries to harm our interests or attack our people, they must know that we will respond.” This statement emphasizes Iran’s readiness to defend itself against aggression.

Additionally, Tangsiri addressed the strategic significance of the Strait of Hormuz, a vital maritime passage for global oil shipments. While he indicated that decisions regarding its closure lie with senior officials, he affirmed that his forces would execute such orders if directed. He elaborated, “Deciding whether to close the Strait of Hormuz is not my responsibility—it is in the hands of senior officials. However, if ordered, its execution is my duty.”

In response to US President Donald Trump’s messages and threats, Tangsiri downplayed their importance, stating, “I have no knowledge of Trump’s message, nor do I care to analyze it. I hear his threats, I observe his actions, and I prepare myself to counter them.” This response indicates Iran’s approach to external pressures and its focus on self-defense.

Regarding Iran’s military capabilities, Tangsiri asserted that the nation can strike enemy bases anywhere in the world. He stated, “We have the capability to strike all enemy bases, wherever they may be. If an attack is launched against us from any geographical location, we will strike back at that exact place.” This comment highlights Iran’s commitment to retaliate against any aggression, reinforcing its deterrent strategy.

Moreover, Tangsiri declared, “No one can strike us and escape. Even if we have to chase them to the Gulf of Mexico, we would.” This assertive statement reflects Iran’s confidence in its military capabilities and its willingness to defend its territory.

In conclusion, Tangsiri’s remarks encapsulate Iran’s unwavering stance on its defense policies and military readiness. He emphasized, “We will not allow Trump to impose his will on us.” This declaration not only reinforces Iran’s resistance to external pressures but also highlights its commitment to national sovereignty and security.
