If they want to damage the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps, the Majlis will be ready to counter, Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf said after his visit to the IRGC headquarters and his meeting with the IRGC Commander Major General Hossein Salaami.
The enemies do not have exact knowledge about “our nation and our IRGC” and the relations between the two, the speaker added to his words.
They think that the IRGC is just a military force like their own military forces, but they should know that the IRGC and Basij have come from the people and the nation, he underlined.
Qalibaf went on to say that General Soleimani who was assassinated by the US forces in Iraq over three years ago is today the most popular figure among the people, and he was from IRGC.
Such an analytical mistake made by the Europeans about the IRGC has to be put right, Qalibaf noted.
The European Parliament should understand that it cannot change the realities through its proposal, he said adding that the West and the arrogant powers supported and equipped the terrorist group Daesh (ISIS) but it was the IRGC that fought the group and put an end to its presence in the region.
A plan to put the name of the IRGC on the terrorist list was proposed by the Polish member of the European Parliament, Anna Fotyga.
The proposal has called on the council of the European Parliament to include IRGC, Basij, and Quds Force in the terrorist list.
As the speaker stated, the European Parliament is an advocate of terrorism today as they support Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO) which has killed and tortured over 17,000 Iranian people including women and children.
The Islamic Republic is powerful enough at the present time to strongly respond to any threats, he stressed.
The Islamic Republic has already reacted to anti-Iran moves in Europe and warned against them.
Also, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian had described the European Parliament’s destructive measures against the IRGC saying that such moves are against the United Nations Charter.
