Iran will never bow to its enemies, stated Habibullah Seeri, the Chief of Staff and Deputy Commander of the Iranian Army. "Fighting the largest military force in the world is a great challenge. But our people stood firm and fought because the word 'surrender' does not exist in our vocabulary," the Tasnim news agency quoted him as saying. According to Sayari, the opponent was defeated in all three wars and failed to achieve his goals, because Iran did not allow him to win. He emphasized that the Islamic Republic sees itself as victorious on the battlefield and will never bow down to its enemies.
