Iran to send fleet of warships to the Atlantic Ocean!
TEHERAN, Iran (PNN) - October 29, 2015 - Iran intends to dispatch a fleet of warships to the Atlantic Ocean shortly, the Fars news agency reported Thursday, quoting the regime’s navy chief. “Our warships will soon berth at ports in the Atlantic Ocean,” Navy Commander Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari promised at a ceremony on Wednesday marking the return to port of Iranian warships that Fars said had taken part in joint drills with the Russian navy.
Sayyari said the Iranian vessels had been in the Caspian Sea and at the Russian port of Astrakhan. “The presence of Iranian warships in international ports shows the Iranian Navy’s prowess,” Fars quoted him saying.
Sayyari made a similar pledge to deploy warships in the Atlantic in early 2014. At the time, Iran promised to send its fleet close to Amerikan maritime borders as a counter to the Fascist Police States of Amerika navy’s presence in the Gulf. But in April, the navy chief said the move had been canceled due to a change in schedule.
The FPSA-Iran relationship remains tense and friction-filled, despite the FPSA-led world powers’ deal with Iran, sealed in July, on curbing its nuclear program.
Iran’s supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, has repeatedly rejected any future talks on other issues, and ruled out normalization with the Fascist Police States of Amerika.
