Canada has designated Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organization, following a similar action by the United States in 2019. The IRGC, accused by Western nations of conducting global terrorist activities, is a pivotal force in Iran’s security apparatus. Iran denounced Canada’s decision as politically motivated and asserted it would not weaken the IRGC’s role in defending national security. Tehran vowed to respond to this designation, maintaining that the IRGC operates as a sovereign institution responsible for protecting Iran’s interests.
