TEHRAN (Basirat) : Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) hailed the Iranian Army for the recent brilliant performance in a graduation ceremony of cadets attended by Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, pledging support and unity with Army troops.
In a Saturday message to his opposite number in the Army, IRGC Chief Major
General Mohammad Ali Jafari praised the Army cadets for the great show of power
in the recent graduation ceremony, expressing confidence that close cooperation
would ensure the country’s security against the enemies.
He also pledged that the IRGC units will keep supporting the Army forces in all
arenas.
On Wednesday, Ayatollah Khamenei said in a gathering of new Army officers that
vigorous efforts to boost Iran’s power is a non-negotiable issue, warning that
the enemies attempt to counter Iran’s national might, because they see this as a
nuisance.
The adversaries are opposed to the enhancement of the Islamic Republic of Iran’s
power in the region and beyond, because such power constitutes the "strategic
depth of the Islamic Establishment,” Ayatollah Khamenei said.
The Army and the IRGC last month staged a joint military exercise, covering a
large area of Iran’s western frontier, demonstrating the level of coordination
and cooperation between the armed two forces.
