Bandar Abbas, Hormuzgan prov, Dec 2, IRNA � Commander of the Iranian Navy Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari on Tuesday underlined the need to reinforce the Navy so that it can change the geopolitics of the entire world.
Sayyari, who was speaking during the 16th Seminar of Iran's Maritime Industries, referred to the long history of Iran's presence in the sea and said it is time to make up for the country's backwardness in the sea which was caused by years of colonial policies in the region.
