Iran urges regional countries to trust Tehran, not US

Mar 14, 2026, 08:15 GMT+0Updated: 11:11 GMT+0

Countries in the Middle East should trust Iran rather than the US, said spokesperson for the General Staff of Iran’s armed forces even as Iranian attacks continued targeting the neighboring states.

Abolfazl Shekarchi warned regional governments not to rely on what he called America’s “hollow power,” saying the United States could not even defend its own forces or provide security for Muslim countries.

He called on regional states to trust the Islamic Republic and urged unity across the Muslim world against the US and Israel.
