Ayatollah Khamenei recently met with a group of academic elites and scientific talents in Tehran. Despite the mourning for Hezbollah’s leader, he emphasized the importance of not succumbing to despair and instead channeling grief into motivation for progress.
The Leader highlighted the root cause of conflicts in the region as the presence of the United States and certain European countries. He recalled past instances of warmongering by foreign powers, citing the Iran-Iraq war as an example.
Ayatollah Khamenei stressed the need to recognize and cultivate gifted individuals in the country. He called upon the elites to play a significant role in advancing various sectors such as technology and sciences.
Urging for a scientific uprising, the Leader emphasized the role of intellectuals in leading a new movement for scientific progress. This, he stated, would not only bring superiority over rivals but also protect the people from harm.
Overall, the meeting underscored the importance of harnessing the country’s talents for innovation and progress while remaining vigilant against external provocations.
