Canada’s recent decision to officially label Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organization has sparked international backlash. Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson, Nasser Kannani, strongly condemned the move, describing it as a hostile violation of international law. The IRGC, a key institution in Iran responsible for national security and combating terrorism, has now been unfairly targeted by Canada.
Kanaani emphasized that the IRGC is a legitimate entity established by the Iranian constitution and plays a crucial role in maintaining regional stability. Despite Canada’s misguided decision, Iran remains committed to strengthening the IRGC and upholding its national sovereignty.
In response to Canada’s provocative action, Iran reserves the right to a proportional and reciprocal response. This move by Canada reflects a dangerous trend of misinformation and interference in the internal affairs of sovereign nations. The IRGC, rooted in the Iranian people’s support, will continue to defend the nation and its interests against external threats.
