Condemning the downing of Iran Air Flight 655 by US naval warship, Iranian Parliament Speaker mentioned the consecutive failures of the US in the region and said that America has failed because it doesn’t know the region and Iranian nation.

Iran Press/Iran news: Ali Larijani made the remarks on the occasion of the anniversary of Iran Air passenger flight 655's shooting down by the American naval warship which martyred over 290 Iranians, saying, "The US has done whatever it could to put the Islamic Revolution under extreme pressure; but Trump must understand that bullying and pressuring civilized nations like Iranians, make them more united." 

"America is unable to understand the Iranian nation and that is its weak-point," Iranian Parliament Speaker added.

"They do not want advanced and developed Iran. We must stand on our feet and make a huge leap though under tough conditions," noted Larijani.

"It is too strange that America never apologized or say anything regarding the shooting down of Iran's 655 passenger flight. They just claimed it was mistaken for F14 fighter," he said while asking, "If it was a mistake, why its commander was rewarded by a medal?"
