Rooydad24 | Mojtaba Ansari, the legal advisor to the President, stated during the 30th anniversary ceremony of the passing of Ayatollah Ahmad Khomeini: “If we had properly discharged our duty in introducing the shining figures of the revolution, we would not be witnessing failures in the educational and life-related aspects of young people and women today.”

As reported by ISNA, the legal advisor to the President added: “During the Imam’s exile, Ayatollah Ahmad Khomeini played a prominent role as a link between the people and the Imam. He was a guide for revolutionaries and after the martyrdom of his brother, Haj Mustafa, his roles became more extensive and serious. In the Imam’s historic migration from Najaf to Paris, Haj Ahmad Khomeini was the only advisor to the Imam, and his management during that period was a great miracle. Our youth must know that Iran has been preserved by the blood of such people.”

He reminded: “Sincerity with the people and humility before the nation were other characteristics of Haj Ahmad Khomeini. He was an honest trustee in conveying the people’s pains to the Imam, and until the last day of the Imam’s life, the Imam’s office was open to all the people. These factors enabled us to overcome the war crisis, and the Iranian nation stands on its own feet. After the Imam’s passing, Haj Ahmad Khomeini declared that he was a soldier of the leader and advised everyone to continue the Imam’s path under the shadow of the Guardianship of the Jurist.”

Ansari, noting that the Islamic Republic is the greatest legacy of the Imam, stated: “Preserving this legacy is the responsibility of all of us, and it requires wisdom and innovation. Managing the country today is much more difficult than during the Sacred Defense era; the population of the country has more than doubled, and our economic problems have increased. We are in a hybrid economic war today. The enemies believe that our weakness lies in the economy and want to tighten this space, break the bond between the people and the system, and create security for Israel, even at the cost of destabilizing the entire Middle East.”

He emphasized: “I testify, as a small member of the government, that the government is working day and night to solve the people’s problems. However, the challenge of today’s era is that we cannot openly discuss many issues with the people. We have passed a harsh winter, and God knows the great jihad that was carried out so that the people would not face difficulties in their heating needs.”

The legal advisor to the President noted: “In the last two to three months, the staff of the Ministry of Oil have worked tirelessly like mujahideen and helped us navigate these difficult conditions. For the future energy balance, good plans have been made, and intense diplomacy with neighbors is underway. Despite all the sanctions and pressures, our diplomacy is progressing well.”

A member of the Expediency Council added: “Dr. Pourseyedikia, based on the moral lessons of Nahj al-Balagha, has often reminded us not to delve into the margins and criticize the past, but to bring hope to the people. A month ago, when a significant achievement in satellite launching was reported to the cabinet, the President asked the relevant minister why he did not mention in his report that the satellite was built by the previous government and that we had prepared the groundwork for its launch. He emphasized that if we are not grateful to the past, future generations will not be grateful to us.”

The legal advisor to the President stated: “I frankly say, dear friends! More than 8 months have passed since the elections, and you should disband your headquarters. Why are some people creating marginalization when the government, with the support of the leadership, is working to solve problems? Is there any official in this country who does not believe in the hijab?”

Ansari added: “A law was written, but some parts of it are not feasible. Based on the country’s interests, the higher legal authority has decided to temporarily suspend its implementation so that the legal deputy of the presidency can prepare an amendment and send it to the parliament. We are already working on this. Why do you disrupt societal calm and engage in hateful activities every day? Now is not the time for such actions.”

The legal advisor to the President, referring to Trump’s letter to the Leader of the Revolution, stated: “The Leader has repeatedly stated that we do not seek war with anyone in the world, but we do not kneel before warmongers either. If America is prepared to interact with Iran from a position of respect for this nation and the recognition of equal rights in the international arena, we are also willing to interact. But our nation is not one that bows to power and threats. In 46 years, our nation has proven this. It is a mistake to test the tested.”

He stressed: “Approach the Iranian nation with respect and take a step forward, and we will take a step forward. It is not sincere to impose sanctions while writing letters. If you are sincere, lift the sanctions on medicines for Iran. Sanctions are a crime and a violation.”
