“The Iranian military’s Ground Forces will deploy its peacekeeping troops in any region of armed conflict upon foreign ministry’s recommendation.”-Ahmad Reza Pourdastan, Iranian Army’s Ground Forces Brigadier-General

The Iranian general told foreign military attachés that Iran’s Army is ready for “peacekeeping” duties, anywhere in the world.  This is supposedly in accordance with Iran being a member of the Untied Nations, and being willing to help with UN peacekeeping missions.
