🔺🔻Itar-Tass Russia: Iran is prepared for a prolonged battle and to wear down U.S. forces / Iran determines the time and place of confrontation with the U.S. A senior security source reacted to the Wall Street news about the extension of U.S. military presence, stating to Itar-Tass Russia: 🔹The Iranian armed forces have been fighting hostile forces for more than 15 months since the 12-day war. 🔹Essentially, for the past 5 decades, Iranians have been in a continuous battle against the comprehensive military, economic, political, and security pressures of the U.S., and they have learned how to adapt to any situation. 🔹Fortunately, we do not need a special decision to extend our forces' presence in the region because we have been in this area for thousands of years and we will remain here forever. 🔹Iranian strategists emphasized during the 12-day war that they were prepared for a long-term confrontation, and this is now evident on the battlefield. 🔹The aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln is one of many signs that demonstrate the exhaustion of the opposing side and its inability to continue the fight. 🔹As long as actions against national interests and the rights of the Iranian people continue, we see ourselves obligated to respond decisively. 🔹Iran is determined to advance its program in robust defense and counter-defensive strikes, determining the time and place of conflict in a way that inflicts maximum pain on the enemy. 🔹According to this Iranian official, the extension of U.S. military presence in the region proves that the perseverance and resistance of Iranians will increasingly wear down the U.S. Army and further entangle the U.S. in the region.
