🇮🇷🇺🇸🇮🇱⚡️ – Television interview with Iranian Security Council Secretary Mohsen Rezaei

➡️ Iran’s Security Council Secretary Mohsen Rezaei said that Trump greatly under-estimated Iran, saying that today, nobody considered America’s war with Iran to be a rational or logical war, because everyone describes it as a stupid war: “And I want to add another word to that: Ignorant,” he said.

➡️ Rezaei said that America’s military, economic and political actions were not based on any precise assessment or accurate calculations, but instead carried out entirely at the ‘instigation of Israel and Netanyahu personally.’

➡️ “Netanyahu dragged Trump into a swamp, while he himself is now sitting in a corner, and because of this, disagreements have emerged between the two,” Rezaei noted, stating that just as Trump started a stupid war, he will now fail to get out of it ‘because of stupidity.’

➡️ Rezaei said it remains in America’s interests to accept Iran’s conditions and get out of the war, because the longer the US remained and floundered, the worst its situation will become.

➡️ “If war begins again, US ships, unless they leave the Indian ocean, will be attacked wherever they are inside the Indian Ocean, because we have developed these capabilities,” Rezaei said, claiming that the the military had increased the speed of the hypersonic missiles from Mach 6 to Mach 10.

➡️ “We have also developed our electronic warfare systems, improved our air defences, and we have other measures that we will use at the appropriate time,” he said, adding: “Therefore, we are fully prepared – if America starts the war, we will confront America with greater force and with more numerous and more painful strikes.”

➡️ Rezaei continued: “If the Americans are serious, let their soldiers come and enter Iran – why do they not come in?” he asked, saying that ground forces are always the ones who have the final words in wars: “Why do the airborne divisions not come? Why do the US ground forces not enter Iran? Why do they only bomb from the Sky and then leave,” he questioned.

➡️ “I say to all the Arab countries and neighbouring countries, that if the Americans try to obstruct our commercial and financial relations, we will do two things,” he warned, stating that first would be an attack on American companies, ‘such as the American drilling companies operating around Iran, along with American commercial companies and American businesses.’

➡️ Rezaei said that Iran would target them and say that an attack on the American economy in response to America’s attack on the Iranian economy – ‘attack for attack.’

➡️ However, “on the other hand, we will also tell all neighbouring countries not to cooperate with America, because we will respond in kind, so if a neighbouring country cooperates with the Americans in imposing an economic blockade on Iran, for example, in financial matters related to us, we will punish its ships in the Strait of Hormuz,” he warned, adding: “We will impose restrictions on their movement and passage on some of their activities, or we will respond in kind regarding economic cooperation.”

➡️ Rezaei said: “America and Trump will leave,” claiming: “Everyone knows that the American economy is, in reality, on a path toward collapse – within the next 10 years, America will not be as it is today, but we and the Arab countries will remain, and we are the ones who must fix this region.”

➡️ According to Rezaei, its down to the regional countries to create a pact for economic cooperation and be friends together in the region: “We are one family – the Persian Gulf family,” he said, stating: “We are eight countries, and we must focus on reconstruction and development, cooperate with one another, participate in each other’s investments, and even have a single currency and a common market.”

➡️ Rezaei said his question to Arab officials is this: “If Iran had not resisted and Iran had been forced to surrender, would Israel have not attacked Saudi Arabia today? Would Israel not have advanced all the way to Damascus? Would Israel not have attacked Iraq?”

➡️ The Secretary continued saying: “We have given martyrs here, and we are defending Arab countries – if we had not rubbed America’s and Israel’s noses in the dirt in Iran, and if they had felt victorious in Iran, there would have been no one in the region capable of standing against them.”

➡️ “Israel would have attacked all the Arab countries, and America would have supported it,” Rezaei claimed, noting that: “We resisted – yes, we defended our own country – but our defence also benefited Arab countries.”

➡️ Rezaei asked: “Is Saudi Arabia itself not connected to some groups in Yemen? Does it not supply then with weapons? Is that not intervention?” stating that: “Our cooperation with Ansar Allah becomes intervention, but what Saudi Arabia does is not intervention?”

➡️ “What we do is considered intervention,” he continued: “Even though we want to bring this issue to an end, while Saudi Arabia is the one that does not want the issue to end,” stating that: “A revolutionary government has been formed in Yemen, so Saudi Arabia should move toward it, and the two countries should become friends and brothers who work together – whatever we can do, we are at their service,” he said.

➡️ Rezaei continued: “Now Yemeni forces have gone to Bab el-Mandeb, taken control of it and deployed there, and they say this happened at Iran’s instigation, but tomorrow, if the same thing happens in Gibraltar, they will again say it happened at Iran’s instigation, – what incitement have we carried out?”

➡️ The Secretary noted that the US themselves were pushing peoples towards rebellion and revolution against them: “In my view, Trump and this Israeli entity are behind all of these developments.”

➡️ Rezaei commented on Israel’s activities against Hezbollah, saying: “The Israelis blew up the empty tunnels in Lebanon for propaganda and for an election spectacle,” noting that: “They took photographs and videos, saying ‘look how strong Netanyahu is, but all this is propaganda, which is connected to the elections, while our work, however, is based on principles.”

➡️ Concluding the interview, Rezaei said that the Arab countries must completely prevent America and tell it: “You have no right to launch from our countries to bomb Iran,” warning: “We are serious about defending ourselves, but this time, if war begins, we will strike more severely all the US air bases from which those aircraft take off, we will strike them with greater force.”
