TEHRAN (FNA)- Senior Military Aide to the Iranian Supreme Leader Major General Yahya Rahim Safavi praised the country’s armed forces for their preparedness to repel any possible attack by potential aggressors, and said that no country dares to even think of attacking Iran.


“We have never been afraid of anything and we are fully ready for defending the Islamic Iran,” Major General Safavi said, addressing a group of people in the Western province of Kermanshah on Friday.

The Leader’s military aide underlined that the Iranian armed forces are ready to confront all enemies’ threats.

“Kermanshah has been Iran’s security and defense shield along the western borders of the country,” he added.

In relevant remarks in October, Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei described the Iranian Armed Forces' full preparedness as a major deterrent to enemy attacks, and meantime stressed that the country will not step back in case of any foreign aggression.

“Because of their Islamic teachings, Iranian nation are not the men of aggression and invasion but they will not fall short of confronting any aggression,” Ayatollah Khamenei said, addressing Iranian military units in Northeastern province of North Khorassan at the time.

The Leader lauded Iran's high military preparedness, and stated, “The only reason the power mongers’ motivation for waging war has downgraded or getting weakened is the general readiness of Iranian nation and the defense readiness of the armed forces.”

The Leader said general readiness of Iranian nation, especially the youth, is today in the highest possible level compared to the past and the armed forces are more prepared and more powerful than the past.
