Referring to the reasons which caused the US decline, Izadi stated that US failure in Iraq and Afghanistan war is considered as one of the reasons.

He went on to say that the economic crisis that began in 2008 also affected the US decline.

"According to Washington post, collapse indexes are seen in the US too," he added.

Izadi also referred to the role of Iran and Islamic resistance in US failure in west Asia, adding that Iran and some countries played an effective role in increasing oil prices.

Referring to two presidential candidates, Trump and Biden, he noted that if Trump is elected, US decline will be accelerated, though he must know that policy of imposing pressure on Iran has failed.

"Both of these candidates are the result of Iran’s resistance against arrogance," he stressed.
