Iran's 'defensive diplomacy' neutralized plots of global arrogance: Senior commander
A senior Iranian military commander says the Islamic Republic’s "defensive diplomacy" has foiled the global arrogant powers’ plots to isolate the country.
Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari, the Iranian Army’s deputy commander for coordination, made the remarks on Wednesday as he enumerated the Islamic Republic’s achievements in the field of defensive diplomacy.
“Our interaction and communication with other countries demonstrate the failure of global arrogance in implementing the policy of isolating Iran,” he said.
“The enemies are trying to isolate the Islamic Revolution and the country, but they will not succeed,” the commander asserted.
Sayyari attributed this to the Islamic Republic's significant efforts in enhancing interactions with other countries, as evidenced by its annual meetings with foreign military attachés and defense officials.
He cited the annual meetings between the country’s officials, foreign military attachés, and foreign students at the National Defense University and the Army University of Command and Staff as part of the Army's diplomatic program.
The official also mentioned the Islamic Republic’s having sent and received various military delegations from around the world as another case in point.
Thanks to the blessings of the country’s 1979 Islamic Revolution, “we are currently in contact with many countries around the world, and our defensive diplomacy is active.”
He added, “We have had several joint military exercises with countries around the world in various fields, including land, air, and sea, and we have exchanged scientific and industrial delegations.”
Sayyari highlighted that the visits by various naval groups to the country's ports, and the dispatch of naval groups to different countries around the world, represent another aspect of defensive diplomacy.
“We have sent or received over 100 military delegations, had several joint military exercises, and accepted students from various countries, and this demonstrates the high capability of the [Iranian] Armed Forces and the defensive diplomacy of the Islamic Republic of Iran's Army.”
‘Defensive diplomacy as component of power’
The official viewed the promotion of diplomacy as a component of power, asserting that the stronger the Islamic Republic’s defensive diplomacy, the greater its ability to interact and cooperate with countries worldwide.
Sayyari noted that the area of implementation of the country’s defensive diplomacy ran the gamut of its land, air, and air defense forces as well as the naval force, where the diplomacy figured at even more extensive and higher levels.
