RNA – Addressing a group of senior Iranian officials on Wednesday, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khamenei, described the US as a symbol of dishonesty and maliciousness, saying: “We cannot trust the Americans, and besides the Americans, some other Western governments are the same. Therefore we have to rely on our own capabilities and the American official’ positions and performance endorse such a view.”
The Leader noted that Almighty God will assist the Iranian nation if it embraces sincerity in its actions.
“In the course of personal and social life, there are always ups and downs and hardship and ease, but the important thing is that under all these circumstances, the main course and orientation must not be forgotten,” said Ayatollah Khamenei.
The Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution also said Iranian officials have always been united despite their differences of views.
“The Islamic Republic of Iran has always enjoyed the privilege of national unity, but alongside this national unity there must be unity and empathy between officials and such unity is in no contrast with differences of attitudes and views,” said Ayatollah Khamenei.
The Leader called on Iranian officials, of whatever attitude or view, to move in line with the objectives set by the 1979 Islamic Revolution.
Ayatollah Khamenei also said “empathy and rapport and unity” between officials will prepare the ground for the realization of the Resistance Economy, noting: “Without cooperation among officials, affairs will not go ahead.”
