Imam Khamenei Appreciates Iran\'s Rapid Scientific Progress

Ayatollah Khamenei stated that the victory of the Islamic Revolution in 1979 is the main reason for Iran’s progress, and the country’s enemies have not been able to hinder the country’s scientific achievements ever since.
“Contrary to its claims, the hostile and obstinate front formed against the Islamic establishment and the Iranian nation, is made up of only a few Western domineering countries, and spares no efforts to impede Iran’s scientific progress,”? Ayatollah Khamenei said in an address to a group of Iranian academics and students in Tehran on Tuesday.
Early in October, Ayatollah Khamenei hailed the country\'s experts and scientists for their strenuous efforts which have resulted in Iran\'s rapid scientific advancement, and urged the country\'s researchers not to hesitate one moment about continuing their firm movement on the path of progress.
Addressing a large number of young elites in Tehran at the time, Ayatollah Khamenei expressed pleasure in the atmosphere of dialogue and interaction dominating the country\'s scientific move and progress, but meantime urged the Iranian scientists to accelerate their efforts.
\"Of course there is one concern that a status of satiation and satisfaction will be created due to the country\'s rapid scientific move and this is while we are still at the start of the path and this (present) scientific speed should not be decelerated or stopped,\" he underlined.
Ayatollah Khamenei said that Iran is lagging behind the world\'s top countries in area of science and technology because it had been ruled by dependent, ignorant and autocratic rulers for centuries.
Thus, this wide distance with the world\'s top scientific powers and the existence of rather powerful rivals in the region double the necessity for Iran\'s accelerated scientific move towards a top position in area of science which deserves the Iranian nation\'s prestige, he added.
