IRGC Questions Effectiveness of New US Border Control Force
The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps has dismissed the potential impact of a new US military initiative on Iranian trade routes, labeling the plans as ineffective.
The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has expressed skepticism regarding the success of a new US force tasked with restricting Iranian trade routes. IRGC spokesperson Hossein Mohebbi described the 'Iron Gate' plan as merely a play on words.
The US military force aims to tighten surveillance along Iranian land borders and the Caspian Sea, a move that coincides with the ongoing naval blockade of Iranian ports.
Mohebbi emphasized that Tehran has made the necessary preparations to counter these measures, relying on close communication channels with neighboring countries.
Iranian officials maintain that these actions will not succeed in causing an economic collapse within the country, asserting their resilience against such pressures.
Meanwhile, international diplomatic efforts continue to bridge the gap between Washington and Tehran, with relevant parties currently reviewing new proposals to narrow existing disagreements.
