Khamenei: There were individuals who wanted to cut some of the arms of the country's national power with their feeble proposals. If they had been allowed to do so, Iran would be facing major threats today. By the will & grace of God, these proposals weren't allowed to be implemented
Khamenei: Giving in to the US or any major power in order to be immune from sanctions is a big mistake & a major blow to political strength. There's nothing more naïve & inept than the proposal to decrease the country's defense strength so that the enemy won't become sensitive
Khamenei: Proposals such as abandoning regional involvement or stopping development in nuclear sciences are harmful to our national power. Regional involvement gives us more strategic depth and national strength. Nuclear science development helps to meet the country's needs in the future
