Destroying US nuclear weapons and the long-range missiles are Iran’s pre-conditions for holding talks on missile programs, Armed Forces spokesman General Masoud Jazayeri said.
Jazayeri made the remarks Saturday in reaction to the claims made by some American and European officials.
What the Americans say out of desperation as regard restricting Iran’s missile power is an unachievable ambition indicating their failure in the region, He said.
The US would have not be in weak position, if Iran’s missile power development had been supposed to be affected by political talks, he added.
Elsewhere is his remarks, Jazayeri referred to the Zionist regime, and said Iran considers Israel as an occupier, illegitimate and illegal regime.
