Masoud Pezeshkian, the President of Iran, emphasized in a passionate speech on Friday that economic security cannot be separated from national and regional security. He referred to the severe and extensive sanctions imposed by the United States, especially in recent times, considering these sanctions as a sign of America's and Israel's "aggressive activities."
Sanctions and Their Consequences
Pezeshkian pointed out that sanctions directly negatively impact people's lives, adding: "These sanctions not only harm the country's economy but also jeopardize national security and regional stability." He also stated that these pressures have reached a more dangerous stage, especially in the current situation where Iran is facing economic challenges.
The President of Iran criticized U.S. policies and emphasized the necessity of national solidarity to confront these pressures. He said: "We must unite as a nation to overcome this crisis and move towards development and progress."
Future Outlook
Pezeshkian also highlighted the need for new economic solutions and noted that to achieve sustainable security, new measures and policies are required. He stressed the importance of international cooperation and diplomacy in this regard, stating: "We must establish constructive relations with all countries, especially neighbors, to achieve lasting stability."
These remarks come at a time when Iran is experiencing an economic crisis, and external pressures, especially from the United States and Israel, continue. It seems that Masoud Pezeshkian aims to draw more attention to the country's economic situation and support national solidarity in the face of challenges.
