Opening relations to the east makes Iran a commerce hub in the region: analyst

With economic sanctions and wars waged against the republic since 1979, Iran is fully aware of the potential economic boom deriving from a steady development of the country and its resources. Opening relations to the east will also make Iran an important hub in the region for commerce in terms of imports and exports. As Ayatollah Khamenei has indicated clearly, this hypothesis needs to be developed in a correct way to maintain Iranian interests central. In this process, lessons from history come useful.

What does it mean to be the "government of resistance"?

It means refusal to give in to bullying and to greed. It means adopting a position of power. The government of resistance adopts a position of power. Notice that the government of resistance is not interested in showing transgression, in seeking dominance and in possessing the wealth of other nations and countries. Nor is it interested in adopting a defensive and passive position. It is interested in none of these things.

The youth should prepare themselves in terms of science, faith and revolutionary motivations

The youth should prepare themselves: they should always be ready in terms of scientific, ideological, and revolutionary motives. Iran's youth serve as an engine for progression within the Revolution: this has been the case since the beginning of the Revolution until this very day. Fortunately, today, we have more youth who are determined and insightful than we did at the start of the Revolution: we do not have as many, rather we have more! The insight and depth of understanding encompassed by our younger generations are greater than the Revolutionary youth of the past: we do not suffer from shortcomings in this regard: this, thankfully, exists. Dear youthful Iranians, you should prepare yourselves: teenagers who are entering into young adulthood should prepare themselves. Revolutionary thought, motivation, insight, and action are among the many elements that our youth should remember.
