Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei asserted that “the US presence in countries bordering Gulf territorial waters is the primary source of insecurity,” adding that “the future of the region will be without the US presence and in service of the security and well-being of its people.”
In a written statement, Khamenei said, “The US bases in the region are incapable of securing themselves, so how can they guarantee the security of the countries under their control?”
He indicated that “the victory achieved through the strong Iranian strategic resistance will pave the way for a new regional and global order.”
Khamenei stated that “a new chapter is unfolding in the Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz,” adding that “the new administration of the Strait will bring peace, progress, and economic benefits to all Gulf states.”
He added that “Tehran shares a common destiny with its Gulf neighbors and will secure the Gulf region and eliminate enemy’s abuses of the waterway.” (EIR)
