Bojnurd (IP) - The top commander of the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) said the secret to defeating the enemy is to stand alongside the people, pay attention to their lives, and alleviate their problems.

Iran Press/Iran newsMajor General Hossein Salami made the remarks on Thursday at the inauguration ceremony of a number of poverty alleviation projects in one of the deprived areas of North Khorasan province, northeastern Iran, saying its an honour for him to visit the area and attend the ceremony.

"The enemy wants to keep our people and nation in straitened circumstances and disadvantaged, but we will not allow that, and with all our existence, we consider ourselves the servants of the people," Salami added. 

General Salami went on to say: "The main concern of the Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei is the people's livelihood and we have a duty to help them."

Salami added: "ٌToday, we have become so powerful that our enemies are forced to lie and make false statements in order to attribute every incidence to Iran."

The enemies have been left with no option in the battlefield, as Iran has closed all roads for hostile infiltration, the commander said, adding that the Iranian military forces are protecting the country’s frontiers so vigilantly that there is no concern about “small or big enemies.”

The top commander stated that protecting the Islamic Revolution is only part of the responsibility of the IRGC, and the IRGC looks inward and is in line with the government in the field of construction and helping people.

General Salami reiterated, "Thanks to the leadership, the Velayat-e Faqih, Islam and the loyal people, the dignity of Islamic Iran is increasing day by day and our enemies are becoming more and more humiliated."
