Khamenei: Praying & supplicating God, especially during Ramadan and the Nights of Destiny, are basic human needs. Of course, I believe that if the restrictions on visiting sacred sites continue, the faithful will observe these restrictions more than others. CoronaOutbreak
Khamenei: About praying in sacred sites during Ramadan, I believe the National Committee on Combating Corona's opinions are valid, but this analysis should be done by those who understand the truths & need for praying. Then, I & everyone else will submit to whatever decision they make
Khamenei: A "Health Care Network" is very essential. If as some people guess and repeatedly say, we may have a resurgence of the Coronavirus in the country, such a network can offer great help for that situation
Khamenei: In Western countries health institutions ignore the elderly, the poor, people with Down syndrome & so on, because these people don't have the ability to earn money and create profits. This exposes the realities of the failure of the Western social philosophy. Corona
Khamenei: Since the CoronaOutbreak started later in the U.S. & in Europe, they had time to prepare themselves for confronting this virus, but they failed to do so. The high numbers of those afflicted by this virus & deaths in the U.S. & some European countries confirm this fact
Khamenei: Western civilization's failure in the global trial of combating CoronaVirus is obvious and quite visible. The West and westernized people don't want this failure to be seen; however, it is necessary to study and speak about the various dimensions and reasons for this failure
Khamenei: The occurrence of an incident like the CoronaOutbreak has led to certain behaviors, which have been seen in some countries where people are rushing to stores & panic shopping. Such behavior is not seen in Iran at all & our people have truly shone with their dignity
Khamenei: I give my condolences to all those who have lost their dear ones due to Corona anywhere in the world. We pray for all those afflicted by this disease and ask God to grant elevated ranks to the health professionals who were killed fighting this virus
Iran ready to swap prisoners with US without preconditions.
Khamenei: My purpose for this meeting was to first of all thank those active in fighting Corona, those who are working day and night. Secondly, I would like to thank God, the Exalted, due to the great success of the Iranian nation and the officials in combating this disease
