IRGC Chief: Dispatch of oil tankers to Venezuela displays our might

Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Major General Hossein Salami said Iran has exhibited its power by sending oil tankers to Venezuela.

According to Tasnim News Agency, in comments at a military gathering in Tehran on Wednesday, Major General Salami said the greatest exhibition of Iran’s power took place recently when the country imposed its will on the adversaries and its oil tankers sailed the international waters from the Persian Gulf to Venezuela.

The Islamic Revolution is breaking the back of the enemies, the commander said, adding, “By God’s grace, today we are witnessing the early and rapid decline of our archenemies, particularly the US.”

He said the criminal nature of the US regime has become so obvious that even the American people are setting fire to the US flag.

“All of the symbols with which the US was presenting itself and was displaying an untrue image to the world are falling, and the US is tearing apart the image it had created about itself,” the general added.

The IRGC commander went on to say that Iran has overcome the illegal sanctions, while the US is drowning. “Unable to contain the coronavirus, the US is today in the worst economic conditions.”
