Gulf to have a ‘bright future’ without presence of U.S
“the bright future of the Persian Gulf region will be a future without America and in the service of the progress, comfort, and prosperity of its peoples
Iran’s supreme leader says the Gulf will have a ‘bright future’ without the presence of the U.S. A new chapter for the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz is unfolding.
The Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei says Tehran shares a common fate with Gulf neighbors and that “foreigners who commit evil” have no place but in the “depths of water,”.
The new administration of the Strait of Hormuz will bring economic benefits.
The foreigners, who commit evil’ have no place but in the ‘depths of water.
But since the US-Israel war on Iran started in late February, Iranians “have witnessed with their own eyes. The beautiful manifestations of the steadfastness, vigilance, and courageous struggle” of Iranian forces.
The leader claimed that “the bright future of the Persian Gulf region will be a future without America and in the service of the progress, comfort, and prosperity of its peoples”.
The Strait of Hormuz has “aroused the greed of many devils in past centuries”, Khamenei said, referencing historical events including the expulsion of Portuguese troops in 1622.
A “new chapter” has emerged in the Strait of Hormuz amid the US’s “shameful failure”, Iran’s supreme leader has said in a statement.
“Today, two months after the world’s biggest campaign and aggression in the region and America’s shameful failure in its own plan, a new chapter is emerging in the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz,” Mojtaba Khamenei said in a statement circulated by state media.
The message was posted by Iran’s government news service IRNA in commemoration of National Persian Gulf Day, which celebrates the expulsion of Portuguese forces from the Strait of Hormuz in 1622.
Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian
Earlier, Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian says a US naval blockade on Iranian ports will deepen disruptions in the Gulf and fail to achieve its targets.
“Any attempt to impose a maritime blockade or restrictions is contrary to international law… and is doomed to fail,” Pezeshkian says in a statement.
He adds that such measures would “not only fail to enhance regional security, but are in fact a source of tension and a disruption to lasting stability in the Persian Gulf.”
