Control over the Strait of Hormuz
The Strait of Hormuz, as one of the most important waterways in the world, plays a vital role in the transportation of oil and gas. General Nagdi, highlighting the importance of this strait for Iran's national security, emphasized that the armed forces of the Islamic Republic will exert all their efforts to protect this region. He added that if Iran's demands are not addressed, this dominance will continue, and in other words, Iran has no doubt in defending its interests.
Readiness to increase military capability
General Nagdi also referred to the Islamic Republic of Iran's plans to strengthen and increase its weapon range. He clarified that these plans are designed to ensure the country's security and protect national interests.
