MNA� Brigadier General Ahmadreza Pourdastan stressed Sat. that the West has no business meddling in Iran�s missile program or the country�s military sites.

Pourdastan�s reaction came in response to the possibility of negotiations on Iran�s missile program by the West.

�Our missile capabilities are by no means negotiable,� he stressed.

On Thursday, the US House passed new sanctions on Iran�s ballistic missile program, representing the first action from Congress against the Islamic Republic since President Donald Trump earlier this month decertified the country�s compliance with the nuclear deal.

The House also passed a sanctions bill on Wednesday imposing penalties on Iran for supporting Hezbollah.

Pourdastan went on to highlight Iran�s clear-cut stance on the country�s defense sector, adding �inspection of our military sites is off limits to anyone and any country.�

Elsewhere, Deputy Commander-in-Chief of Iranian Army touched upon the recent developments in Syria, hailing the good coordination between the Syrian armed forces and Iranian military advisers.

�When we review the situation of takfiri terrorists in Syria, we see that they are in the stage of retreat and complete eradication,� he said. �In a few months� time, we will witness the annihilation of terrorist groups in Syria.�
