Commander: IRGC's presence deters US Iran attack

Qom, May 19, IRNA -- Rear Admiral Ali Fadavi, commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Navy, said the United States doesn't think of attacking Iran for the fear of a huge backlash to its interests.

'With the presence of IRGC forces, the Americans do not dare to get near the Iranian borders,' Rear Admiral Fadavi told reporters on the sidelines of the 12th International Conference of Mahdaviat Doctrine in the Holy City of Qom.

Referring to the failed US wars of the past decade, he said Washington seeks to weaken and marginalize countries that follow the Iranian Revolution as their role model. However, this is doomed to fail too.'

'The US presence in the region causes insecurity and violence, and hence their further presence in the region will result in more insecurities,' Rear Admiral Fadavi added.
