In a Wednesday message issued on the anniversary of the establishment of the IRGC, Pezeshkian said the occasion recalls the foresight and prudence of the late founder of the Islamic Republic Imam Khomeini in creating this popular force.
According to the president, the IRGC has played a decisive role throughout the history of the Islamic Revolution in safeguarding Iran’s independence, security, and dignity.
Describing the IRGC as a pure and robust tree that has grown strong over time, he said it has consistently cast a protective and influential presence during the country’s most challenging periods.
Reviewing the IRGC’s record since the victory of the 1979 Islamic Revolution, the president highlighted its role alongside the Army and Basij Forces during the eight-year Iran-Iraq war, as well as in confronting various internal and external threats. He said the force, through faith, courage, and initiative, has disrupted enemy calculations and acted as a firm shield protecting the ideals of the Revolution and the country’s territorial integrity.
He also referred to recent U.S. and Israeli-imposed wars, saying that the IRGC responded in a decisive, intelligent, and triumphant manner, frustrating hostile plots and demonstrating Iran’s defensive power and the nation’s resolve against domination.
Pezeshkian added that the IRGC’s achievements stem from years of dedicated effort, continuous preparedness, and a strong understanding of modern and hybrid warfare. Beyond defense, the president noted the IRGC’s active role in reconstruction and public service, assisting the nation wherever scientific and technical expertise has been required.
He concluded by honoring the martyrs of the IRGC and expressing appreciation for the sacrifices of its commanders, personnel, and their families.
