Iran news- According to Iran Press, Brigadier general, Hossein Salami, in a TV interview on Saturday (November 3, 2018) noted that the United States has lost political conditions to start a new war, and no one supports the American invasion of any part of the world.
Second-in-command of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), Hossein Salami added that the US economy is also unable to support a new war since they spent $ 7 trillion in the West of Asia without any achievement.
Pointing to Iran's power of deterrence Salami said that the Islamic Republic has come to a level of power that can react effectively to the enemies, and threaten their vital interests in the necessary conditions.
Referring to US new sanctions against Iran, Brigadier general, Hossein Salami said "Excluding the eight countries from sanctions, who buy Iranian oil, is an indication of Iran's victory against the United States."
"Resistance is the best way to deal with US sanctions," Salami said adding that "Iran is making better progress with US sanctions, and Iran's self-sufficiency in gasoline production, the achievement of nanotechnology and the acquisition of science-based knowledge are the results of the sanctions imposed by the United States."
Meanwhile the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has said on Saturday that the United States has always been on the losing side of the 40-year-long war it has waged against the Islamic Republic of Iran.
