Tehran, IRNA - Chief Commander of IRGC Brigadier General Hossein Salami in a meeting with Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee of Pakistan General Nadeem Raza on Tuesday emphasized the integrated security of Iran and Pakistan.

Major General Salami met and held talks with General Raza in Tehran on Tuesday.

Emphasizing the integrated security of Iran and Pakistan, Major General Salami stressed the need for closer cooperation between Tehran and Islamabad in all fields, especially in protecting the security of the common border and fighting against terrorism.

He slammed the Zionist regime as the enemy of the Islamic world and humanity.

The IRGC commander warned regional rulers of the bitter consequences of normalization of ties with the “child-killing Zionists”, saying the US, the main supporter of the Israeli regime, is basically the foe of Islam.

The question is that while the Zionist regime cannot even defend itself and is a regime completely without any policy, how would certain Islamic countries rely on it to provide their security or safeguard their economy? There is no logic behind it, Major General Salami underscored.

He further noted that the awful consequences of the presence of US forces in the Islamic world, including the great seditions, long civil wars, destruction of houses, displacement of people, insecurity, poverty, and underdevelopment.

When “we look” at Afghanistan, “we notice” the harmful and irreparable effects of the US interference, the general added, noting that the neighboring states, including Pakistan, suffer from the effects of destructive US interference in Afghanistan.

General Nadeem Raza, for his part, referred to the commonalities between the Pakistani and Iranian nations, described divisions within the Muslim world as a result of the US and Western plots, and noted that the US withdrew from Afghanistan after twenty years without managing to establish security in that country.

He emphasized the necessity of intelligence and operational cooperation with Iran in protecting the security of the joint border.
