Brigadier Alireza Akbarshahi said that Iran has taken big steps to safeguard physical and psychological security of people not only within its national borders but also at the international level.
Iranˈs measures have been so effective that drug dealers have been forced to change their transit path, he said.
He added that discovering over 30 tons of drugs within two weeks in a small region in Sistan and Balouchestan province last year carried the message that Iranˈs borders are no longer safe for drug dealers.
Iranˈs measures to fight drug trafficking has made international bodies such as the United Nations thank the country, Akbarshahi said, adding that even Iranˈs enemies have had to acknowledge the efforts made by Iran in this regard.
