Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Seyed Abbas Araqchi underlined Iran’s important and influential role in the region, saying that Iran is now a proper role model for independent nations’ confrontation against the hegemonic powers and regional dictators.
Araqchi made the remarks in an interview with IRIB’s Channel 5 TV on Saturday
“Iran in regional important issues such as Palestine, Lebanon and Iraq has good policies and is a role model for other countries,” the Iranian foreign ministry spokesman said.
In mid-June 2012, Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei praised the resistance shown by the Iranian nation against the enemies’ plots and conspiracies, and said that the country has become a role model of resistance for the other nations despite all enemy efforts.
Addressing a group of Iranian officials, Muslim envoys and representatives here in Tehran at the time, Ayatollah Khamenei said that the Iranian nation’s honor and might are a clear example of the outcomes of resistance.
The leader pointed to the world arrogant powers’ collaboration on confronting the Islamic Republic, and stated, “In the past 33 years, our wise nation and our dear country have been subjected to non-stop conspiracies of all the world powers which tried to, if possible, prevent Iran which is a live example of resistance and progress from becoming a role model in the other nations’ eyes.”
