FNA- A senior Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) official deplored the recent remarks by British Prime Minister Theresa May against Iran, and said Britain's policies are one of the major causes of insecurity in the region.

"The British seek to escape forward by such comments. The aliens (the trans-regional states) have been the main fomenters of insecurity in our region and Britain is among the countries which have played an important role in stirring crises and insecurity in this region and West Asia," Advisor to the Supreme Leader's Representative at the IRGC Yadollah Javani said on Sunday.

Noting that meeting the regional nations' interests is one of the Islamic Revolution's goals pursued through increasing synergy among the countries of the region and ending the aliens' presence, he said, "The British are now concerned because the Islamic Revolution is attaining this goal."

Before meeting with US President Donald Trump, May said that Iran has influences from Tehran to the Mediterranean region and that Britain should back its friends in dealing with Iran.

In relevant remarks on Saturday, Secretary of Iran's Expediency Council (EC) Mohsen Rezayee blasted May's remarks, and said the international community is aware of UK's plots.

"People hate you (British government) in a way that where there is a plot people will be suspicious to the clandestine role of Britain," Rezayee wrote on his Instagram page.

"Such words are only good to give more courage to Britain’s allies such as Saudi Arabia and that after their consecutive defeats in Iraq, Syria and Yemen," he added.

Rezayee said anyway, the British premier should be asked, “where have you been till now”?!

"It is about forty years that Iran has captured hearts of people in the region but you are in the region for 200 years, people hate you and where there is a plot, people will become instantly suspicious of the clandestine plots," he added.
