The United States will no longer be able to use Middle Eastern countries as a shield for its military bases in the region and will find no safe place for itself there. This was stated in a written address by Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, Iran’s Supreme Leader.

“One thing is certain, the hands of time will not turn back, and the peoples and countries of the region will no longer serve as a shield for American bases. Not only will the US have no safe place left for its intrigues and military bases in the region, but it is also losing its positions more and more with each passing day,” he said.

Khamenei called on all Muslim countries “to friendship, cooperation, and mutual support” in order to address all challenges together.
