AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The Leader of the Islamic Revolution has underlined that the elite is one of the most important human assets of the country and stated: "Elite youth, wherever they are, create hope".
A group of elites and top scientific talents were received by Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, on Wednesday morning.
In this meeting, the Leader of the Revolution said: "I am very grateful to the Almighty God that after this corona problem eased, this lively and hopeful meeting was held once again. Truly, the presence of you young people, especially you elite youth, is the creator of hope. It means that your presence wherever you are will create hope".
The Leader noted: "This is why those who do not agree with the progress of the country do not agree with your presence where you should be present."
Emphasizing that the elite is one of the most important human assets of the country, the leader of the Islamic Revolution said: "Natural resources are important, geographical locations are important, the climate is important, all of these are important, but one of the most important human assets of the country is the existence of the elite. The elite should be considered a huge wealth. When we consider it as a huge wealth, we try to produce it."
The Leader of the Islamic Revolution considered the university to be an important pillar of the country's progress, and emphasizing that scientific elites mainly occupy the university, stated: "If you see that at various times - not only yesterday and the day before - attempts have been made to close universities and classes and the students don't go to class, the professor doesn't go, etc., this is due to the fact that the university plays an essential role."
Ayatollah Khamenei underscored: "A person who threatens the professor on the phone that if you go to class you will face consequences - it is not clear that he himself is the main factor, the factor behind the scenes is important - this is because they can make the university lame, closed and ruined as much as possible, it is a significant opportunity for the enemies of the country and for the enemies of the progress of the country."
The Leader considered the university as one of the biggest obstacles against the domination of arrogance and stressed: "We must know that the world's powerful states aim to dominate, by what means? One day with weapons, one day with deception, one day with science, they will dominate with science. The university prevents domination, that is, if you can raise the level of science in the country, you have created an obstacle against the domination of the enemy."
