Iran has the military capabilities to close the Strait of Hormuz if it wished to do so, but won’t do that for now since the potential of its missiles, drones and vessels exceeds such a tactic, the commander of the IRGC Navy said.
Speaking to reporters in Iran’s southern port city of Bandar Abbas on Sunday, Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps Navy Rear Admiral Alireza Tangsiri shrugged off the US president’s threat of driving Iran's oil exports to zero.
Asked about Iran’s plans to retaliate the US’ hostile actions, such as by closing the Hormuz Strait, he said any decision in this regard comes within the purview of top officials, while the naval forces will follow the orders.
