A senior Iranian general has formally dismissed former U.S. President Donald Trump's claims that Iran's defense capabilities have been destroyed. The general emphasized that Iran's national defense remains wholly intact and has not weakened as Trump alleged.
Speaking at a press conference, the Iranian general stated that Trump's assertions were false and did not reflect reality. He affirmed that Iran has maintained and continued to develop its defense strength despite U.S. sanctions and pressure.
According to sources, the general also pointed out that Iran's military exercises and weapons programs continue as normal, demonstrating that its defense capabilities have not been compromised. He called on the international community not to believe in baseless statements from the U.S.
The remarks come amid ongoing tensions between the U.S. and Iran over issues including the nuclear program and regional security. The general's statements are seen as a strong reaffirmation of the stability and readiness of Iran's armed forces.
