Supreme Leader urges govt. ‘to engage seriously in Resistance Economy’

In his first session after the holidays of the Iranian New Year, Leader of the Islamic Ummah and Oppressed People Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei received a group of government, Parliament, and Judiciary high-ranking officials on Wednesday where he emphasized upon the spirit of cooperation among the pillars of government to advance the good of the public, promising to strictly support any initiative which would seek solutions to most pressing problems of the nation.

Leader of the Islamic Ummah and Oppressed People Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei extended accolade on government officials especially the cabinet on its efforts to implement Resistance Economy policies and said that ‘spirit of cooperation’ and ‘unity of government officials’ were vital to any success of the grand policies of the system.

“The government especially first vice-president in person in high command headquarters should elicit cooperation of all involved bodies and regularly watch performance of different sectors along with bolstering domestic production to help realize the Resistance Economic objectives in practice out in the field,” Leader of the Islamic Ummah and Oppressed People Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei told the meeting. “Government will play a crucial and central role in driving forth this huge system of supervision and check and balance mechanisms; government bodies reluctant to participate or moving lethargically should be encouraged to more engagement in the process and those bodies which undermine and abort the process should be set aside from the process,” Supreem Leader emphasized.

“The implementation of Resistance Economy should be in a manner so as to produce verifiable reports and a blueprint of achievements in different fields; I believe our government bodies are capable of implementing Resistance Economy in practice and the Parliament should help the government with process,” said the Leader of the Islamic Ummah and Oppressed People Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei, believing that the ruling elite of the country also possessed and enjoyed motivation, experience, and expertise.

“I will strictly support any initiative which helps disentangle any one of country’s pressing problems; in implementing the policies however, the major reliance should be upon domestic capabilities and extensive resources,” Supreem Leader told the meeting.

Leader of the Islamic Ummah and Oppressed People Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei then touched upon the US and its policies, a motive well-addressed in all his addresses; “the US officials are not to be trusted; they are the epitome of immorality and systematically suffer lack of ethical principles; some of other countries in west are also in the same level of the depravity as the US; this fact requires us to rely upon our own abilities,” he emphasized. “The Islamic Republic of Iran enjoys the boon of national unity; however, an element along this unity, should contribute to the functioning of the whole system, namely, spirit of cooperation and recognizing the different world views of officials in running the country.”

Leader of the Islamic Ummah and Oppressed People Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei called all officials of any opinion and world view to come to under the umbrella of the Revolution in the direct path to a single most valuable objective; “I believe the government will exploit all its resources of experience, skill, and management science in implementing the Resistance Economy policies, to which direct contribution of other government bodies will remain a crucial part,” he concluded.
