Iranian Military: "Enemies Have Been Defeated; We Will Respond More Strongly to Excessive Demands"

As the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to end the conflict between the United States and Iran has taken effect, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) issued a statement on June 19 (local time), warning that it would respond militarily depending on the situation.

The IRGC claimed, "The aggressor enemies have been defeated in the face of the brilliant, heroic epic achieved by Islamic warriors." They further asserted, "They claimed they would erase Iran from the map and send it back to the Stone Age, but they have helplessly retreated, begging for agreements and negotiations, and have knelt down."

The statement continued, "If the enemies, who break their promises, make excessive demands as they did in the past or infringe upon the rights of the Iranian people, we are prepared to deliver an even greater historical defeat by responding more strongly than before in all domains—land, sea, air, and hybrid warfare."

The IRGC specifically emphasized its pledge of allegiance to the Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei, as the recipient of the message.

It also noted that "the beloved people and Islamic warriors (the military) are supporting their politicians as firmly as a mountain," highlighting that the government's decision ahead of the main negotiations with the United States is aligned with the military's stance.
