Gen. Irani: West Asia Not What it Used to be
TEHRAN -- The commander of the Islamic Republic of Iran Navy said Wednesday enemies should reconsider their policy toward West Asia, since the regional states are capable of ensuring their own security.

Irani said insecurity and instability in the region will have negative repercussions on the global economy.
