Larijani: US, Allies Failed to Disintegrate Iran

Speaking in an interview on Saturday, Ali Larijani said that the main goal of the US and its allies was to disintegrate Iran but the solidarity shown by the Iranian nation and the management of the country in time of war have thwarted their plot.

“In recent days, Donald Trump and his associates, as well as the Zionists (Israel) and some regional actors, explicitly stated their main goal in their speeches. Their main goal was actually to disintegrate Iran,” Larijani said.

“Their goal was not merely to create a minor change in Iran. From Israel’s perspective regarding a great country like Iran, this (minor change) has essentially no meaning. Therefore, their goal was the disintegration of Iran. Their mains concern is Iran itself,” he added.

Referring to statements made by the US president and his post in social media claiming that Iran is disintegrating, Larijani stated, “This shows that their main goal from the beginning (of the war) has been to create condition for the disintegration of Iran.”

He referred to miscalculations of the US and added, “In my view, the most important problem for the Americans is that they do not currently understand the West Asia region, and Iran in particular.”

“They think that the same patterns they have experienced in some countries like Venenzuela can be repeated in Iran, whereas, the conditions are totally different here.”

The secretary of the Supreme National Security Council added, “They wanted to break the spirit of the Iranian nation by creating a heavy shock, but this did not happen because the Iranian nation has deep historical and cultural experiences.”
