RNA – In an exclusive interview with Rasa News Agency, Ayatollah Sayyed Rahim Tavakkol, ‎the representative of the people of Mazandaran in the Assembly of Experts of the ‎Leadership, referred to the role and position of the Assembly of Leadership Experts in the ‎Islamic system, said, “The Assembly of Leadership has several important duties. One of the ‎duties that won’t be performed, God-willing, during our lifetime, is to choose the future ‎leader of the country after the current leader [Ayatollah Khamenei], may God put us before ‎the death of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution.”‎

His Eminence said, “The election of the Supreme Leader is a huge matter that after the ‎demise of Imam Khomeyni, the members of the Assembly of Experts elected the Supreme ‎Leader by the grace of God.”‎

He stated that sometimes the Supreme Leader has very important statements that are ‎conveyed to the members of this Assembly and said, “Members of the Assembly of Experts ‎aren’t in charge of the country’s administration, but they are responsible for explaining the ‎Supreme Leader’s statements.”‎

Referring to the need to turn the statements of the Supreme Leader into a discourse by the ‎nation’s experts, Ayatollah Tavakkol added, “In line with this duty, the Supreme Leader, ‎members of the Assembly of Experts, repeatedly told the people to turn these statements ‎into discourse and to inform the people about the country’s issues and to demand and ‎respond to the heads of forces, ministers and legal officials.”‎

His Eminence stated, “This demand leads to blessings, one of which is that the relevant ‎official realizes that he is under the magnifying glass and control and that the people become ‎aware of the text of the cases because if they aren’t informed, they will unwittingly and ‎ignorantly hold the irresponsible person responsible. They see and will consider many of the ‎duties entrusted to the government as the duties of the leader of the society, if not their ‎duties.”‎

He said that the executive director of the country should be accountable for many affairs of ‎the country and said, “If the people aren’t aware of this issue in the country, they will ‎transfer their demands from one official to another, but if we act on the awareness of the ‎people, they will know who to address.”‎

Ayatollah Tavakkol stressed the need for the experts of the nation to inform the public and ‎said, “Members of the Assembly of Experts have a duty to inform the public about the ‎problems facing the country and its culprits and this is a huge and important issue.”‎
