Unwavering Resolve Against Foreign Intervention

Addressing a gathering of military commanders and officials, President Raisi underscored the crucial role of Iran’s defense apparatus in safeguarding the nation’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. “Our valiant armed forces stand as an impenetrable shield against any form of foreign intervention and aggression,” President Raisi declared, emphasizing the Islamic Republic’s inherent right to self-defense.

The President’s remarks come after a series of unjustified and provocative airstrikes conducted by the United States in the region, which have been widely condemned by Tehran as a blatant violation of international law and regional stability. “These cowardly acts of aggression will only strengthen our resolve and commitment to defending our sacred land and our people,” he asserted, sending a clear message to those who seek to undermine regional peace through unilateral actions.

Praise for Strategic Preparedness and Indigenous Power

President Raisi specifically praised the military’s strategic preparedness, advanced indigenous defense technologies, and the high morale of its personnel. He highlighted Iran’s self-sufficiency in defense production as a testament to the nation’s resilience in the face of sanctions and external pressures.

• Deterrent Capability: Emphasized the military’s ability to deter any potential aggressor.
• Indigenous Technology: Praised advancements in local defense manufacturing.
• High Morale: Acknowledged the dedication and spirit of the armed forces.

The President reiterated that Iran’s military doctrine is purely defensive and aimed at ensuring regional security without any expansionist ambitions. However, he warned that any act of aggression would be met with a firm and decisive response, ensuring the security and stability of the Islamic Republic.
