Tasnim � The Turkish Patriotic (Vatan) Party condemned a recent decision by the US government to label Iran�s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) as a �terrorist group� and voiced its support for the Islamic Republic.

A delegation from the Patriotic Party visited the Iranian embassy in Ankara to voice its opposition to the US administration�s decision and declare their support for the IRGC and the Iranian nation.

US President Donald Trump announced on Monday that Washington is designating the IRGC a foreign �terrorist organization�, marking the first time the US has formally labeled another country's military a terrorist group.

Responding to the move, Iran�s Supreme National Security Council immediately declared the US as a state sponsor of terrorism and US forces in the region terrorists.

The SNSC said it has put CENTCOM on its terror list as a �reciprocal measure� against the US �illegal and unwise� move.
