A Nation Relying on Own Power Won’t Be Agitated by Enemy’s Frowning, Sanctions
Imam Khamenei made the statement on Sunday, November 3, in a meeting with thousands of university and school students on the eve of the National Day of Fighting the Arrogance.
His Eminence elaborated on the root causes of the global arrogance’s enmity with the Iranian nation and defining the term global arrogance, said arrogant powers are those governments that consider themselves rightful to meddle in the affairs of other countries and do not regard themselves accountable to anyone.
The Supreme Leader said the opposite of the global arrogance are those nations and human beings who do not give in to bullying, meddling and imposition of arrogant domination and fight with it.
His Eminence said the US government is an arrogant government that considers itself rightful to interfere in the affairs of all nations, adding that the Iranian nation with their revolution stood up against the bullying and domination of the US and after the victory of the Islamic Revolution severed the roots of the arrogant inside the country.
Imam Khamenei underlined that due the United States’ arrogant approach, nations have a feeling of mistrust and hatred toward the US government, adding that experience shows that any nation or government that has trusted the US- even Washington’s friends- has been dealt a blow.
Elsewhere in his statements, the Supreme Leader pointed to the recent negotiations between Iran and the G5+1 (five permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany) over Iran’s nuclear program and said the members of Iran’s negotiating team are the children of the Islamic Revolution who have been assigned to a difficult mission and are carrying out their mission.
“No one should try to weaken them, insult them, or consider them as compromisers,” Imam Khamenei stressed.
His Eminence stressed that Washington cannot be trusted, saying “We should not trust the enemy who smiles. The Americans smile and express their willingness for negotiations but at the same time say that they have all options on the table.”
The Supreme Leader also referred to the political disputes in the US, the 16-day government shutdown and budget deficit in the US and disputes between Washington and European countries, stressing that the front of global arrogance has been weakening while the Iranian nation is now vigilant, powerful and progressing.
