TEHRAN, Sep. 26 (MNA) – Brig. Gen. Salami, the Deputy Commander in Chief of IRGC says that Trump’s UN address showed how desperately the US is keeping up with Iran in the regional equations.

“If it was not for the power of belief, faith, and resolution, no glory would have been achieved by Iran and Islam as neither weaponry, nor the number of troops would have brought victory for Iran in facing the world powers in the imposed war,” said Brigadier General Hossein Salami, the Deputy Commander in Chief of Iran's Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), on Tuesday.

“Islam is a dimension of the geometry of power in the world of today, and our Islamic establishment has turned into a global priority,” underlined the IRGC’s second-in-command, “the US president’s passive discussion over the power of our establishment while addressing the UNGA not only does not show an intimidating rhetoric but also staged a desperate confession to the rise of a new uncontrollable power.”

“While the whole region is grappling with crises and insecurity problems, the Islamic Iran is enjoying serenity and security with might and strength,” he touched upon the underway wars, conflicts, and crises in Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and Yemen.
