Larijani: The 12-day war was planned years ago

According to RCO News Agency, Ali Larijani, the Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, during his trip to Pakistan, said in a press conference at the Iranian Embassy in Islamabad that the recent 12-day conflict that was “imposed on Iran” was the result of a long-term conspiracy between the United States and Israel, which was said to have been designed and planned years ago.

Conveying the greetings of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution of Iran to the people of Pakistan, Larijani praised the people of this country for standing by Iran “with a deep sense of responsibility” during the Zionist regime’s unjust aggression against Iran.

He noted that this support shows that the Pakistani nation has a “reformed and principled approach to global developments”.

He also appreciated the government, parliament and armed forces of Pakistan for their support and solidarity.

Iran-Pakistan relations are rooted in deep and historical cultural connections

According to the report of Nation newspaper, the secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, referring to the stable relations between the two countries, said that “Iran-Pakistan relations are rooted in deep and historical cultural connections that have always served as the cornerstone of bilateral cooperation. Our cooperation with Pakistan, both past and present, is rooted in cultural affinity, and in political matters, we enjoy intellectual harmony.

He further pointed out that Iran considers Pakistan as a “friendly, supportive and culturally related neighbor” and the common heritage of the Persian language continues to play an important role in bringing the two societies closer together.

Larijani also reminded Pakistan’s justice-seeking stance during the eight-year imposed war against Iran and emphasized that this principled stance has helped Tehran a lot.

Israel was completely disappointed

According to him, the recent 12-day confrontation also brought important lessons and “in the end, it was the firm will of the Iranian nation that showed itself in this conflict.”

A senior Iranian official stated: “The Israeli regime, which thought it could overcome Iran, was completely disillusioned.”

Repeating his view that this war was the result of a “long-standing American-Israeli plan”, Larijani pointed to the recent statements of US President Donald Trump, who claimed that “the United States has been training since 2003 to attack Iran’s nuclear facilities using its planes.”

Iran’s missile capabilities shattered Israel’s illusion of security

The secretary of the Supreme National Security Council of Iran emphasized that “Iran’s advanced missile capabilities have shattered the illusion of Israel’s security”, and acknowledged that some operational deficiencies have been identified and are now being resolved.

In the end, he concluded, the conflict highlighted Iran’s resolve and, at the same time, revealed deep internal turmoil within the Israeli regime.
