Senior commander warns anyone after endangering Iran

"If some seek to endanger the Islamic Republic of Iran’s interests, Iran will also endanger their interests with its capabilities," Deputy Commander at the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), Brigadier General Yadollah Javani said in an interview with Tasnim News Agency published on Saturday.

He added that if the Americans seek to continue with their bullying attempts, the Iranian "Armed Forces will use their own capabilities and potential to safeguard the Iranian nation's interests."
In response to a question about US threats to stop Iran's oil exports, Javani emphasized that the Islamic Republic would carry out “credible” reciprocal threats.

“When a country threatens Iran and raises this issue that it can block Iran's oil exports if it wants to, Iran’s reciprocal threat would be a credible threat,” the IRGC commander pointed out.

A senior US State Department official said late in June that the countries purchasing oil from Iran should prepare themselves to completely stop the Iranian crude imports by November as Washington re-imposes sanctions against Tehran.  
 
The US official, who was speaking on condition of anonymity, told reporters that Washington seeks “to isolate streams of Iranian funding” for the Islamic Republic’s “malign behavior across the region."
