Iran to respond in kind if interests endangered: IRGC commander
TEHRAN (Basirat) :A senior commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) has warned any country that seeks to endanger Iran's interests, particularly the United States, saying Tehran will retaliate in kind in such a case.
"If some seek to endanger the Islamic Republic of Iran’s interests, Iran will
also endanger their interests with its capabilities," IRGC’s Deputy Commander
for Political Affairs Brigadier General Yadollah Javani said in an interview
with Tasnim News Agency published on Saturday.
He added that if the Americans seek to continue with their bullying attempts,
the Iranian "Armed Forces will use their own capabilities and potential to
safeguard the Iranian nation's interests."
In response to a question about US threats to stop Iran's oil exports, Javani
emphasized that the Islamic Republic would carry out "credible” reciprocal
threats.
"When a country threatens Iran and raises this issue that it can block Iran's
oil exports if it wants to, Iran’s reciprocal threat would be a credible
threat,” the IRGC commander pointed out.
