Liberalism Not to Materialize Resistance Economy

Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps Navy Rear Admiral Ali Fadavi said Economy of Resistance will not come true in Iran if the country’s economic policy is in accord with liberal economic theories.

Speaking to the Tasnim News Agency on Wednesday, Admiral Fadavi emphasized that the economic woes of an Islamic society cannot be addressed by relying on “liberal economic theories” and Western economic forecasters.

Referring to the Leader of the Islamic Revolution’s recent message on the occasion of the New Persian Year, the Iranian commander said the Economy of Resistance can be implemented only in accordance with a model devised upon Islam and the Islamic Revolution.

Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei last week named the new Persian year “Year of Resistance Economy: Action and Implementation.”

Back in 2014, Ayatollah Khamenei had sent a proclamation to heads of Iran’s branches of power and outlined general policies to boost the country’s economy and lower its vulnerabilities under a grand plan, dubbed Resistance Economy.
