Speaking at a symposium organized in Tehran, Iran's defense minister Amir Hatami said that America is pursuing two important projects in the region, "America is working for the division of borders in the region. The countries of the region, should not believe the words of the United States on with short-term interests."
Hatemi stated that the Americans are doing a series of plans for the region, "They are trying to plunder the resources of the region by trying to show that the US is the only option, following the backwardness of the zone, a unipolar understanding and bullying politics."
Lots of costs have been paid, much blood has been shed and many wars have occurred so that the present borders have been formed, Hatami said and added: "Now they are trying to change these borders. They are trying to shed the blood, crisis, chaos, and war again in the region. They are trying to revive the sorrows that were living a hundred years ago."
He pointed out that the enemies of the region have tried to play a game in Iraqi Kurdistan, Hatami said that the Iraqi Kurds were tried to be deceived and borders in the region were tried to reshaped first with the steps taken.
"But the attitude of the people with the conscious and awake, Iraq, Iran, and Turkiye have defused these ominous games., he added.
The Iranian defense minister also said, some countries in the region closer to the US think their borders will be protected; the enemies have not given up on their efforts to follow colonial policies in the region and to make the countries of the region smaller.
