Tehran, October 29 (KCNA) -- The chief of the Staff of the General Command of the Armed Forces of Iran on Wednesday strongly demanded pullback of the U.S. troops from the region.

The presence of foreign forces is the main factor which destroys the regional stability and brings about a plunder of wealth, he said, adding the Middle East countries demand the complete withdrawal of U.S. troops from the region.

He urged the U.S. to pull all its forces from not only Iraq and Afghanistan but the region.
