‘Assassination Not to Undermine Iran’s Influence’


TEHRAN (Press TV) -- Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman Abbas Mousavi said Wednesday the U.S. is wrong to think it can dent Iran’s influence through terrorist acts, including the recent assassination of Iranian commander Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani. 
"Our influence has not been dependent on an individual and it will prove that this influence will further be strengthened with the blessings of his (General Soleimani’s) blood, and regional nations will embrace Iran’s influence and that of the resistance,” he said in an interview.
