In the session, Ayatollah Khamenei said the main condition for success in all
areas is the possession of "a strong spirit, motivation, courage and resolute
determination,” adding, "All government executives must act with a sense of
responsibility and greater efforts in the face of problems.”
The Leader of the Islamic Revolution described the administration’s economic
team as the director and pivot of work and action in the country and called upon
all government institutions to be in step with it.
He said another condition for prevailing over predicaments is the exhibition of
a powerful image of the administration, adding, "The image of the
administration in the eyes of the public must be one of capability, efficiency
and assiduity, because the essence of industriousness is appealing and promising
for the people.”
The Leader of the Islamic Revolution also urged the Islamic Republic of Iran
Broadcasting (IRIB) to convey a correct image of the measures of the
administration, adding, "Of course, there is nothing wrong with expressing
reasonable criticisms; furthermore, a huge portion of the correct portrayal of
the administration depends upon the performance of the officials, namely, the
authorities must appear among the people, laborers and industry [workers] and
establish ties with them first hand.”
Ayatollah Khamenei described as powerful the stances of the country’s president
during his tour of Europe, adding, "The display of might against foreigners,
particularly the Americans, is a necessary measure and this should be done in a
timely, resolute and explicit manner.”
"Following projects through the use of the country’s facilities and
capabilities” was another recommendation of the Leader of the Islamic
Revolution to officials.
He added, "Indeed, the European sides are obligated to provide the necessary
guarantees regarding the JCPOA (the 2015 nuclear deal called the Joint
Comprehensive Plan of Action); however, the economy of the country must not be
tied to this issue and be held up by it.”
Ayatollah Khamenei highlighted the "need for the daily expansion of foreign
relations and diplomacy,” adding, "Except for a few cases such as the US, the
country’s ties with the East and West must be enhanced ever more and operational
and purposeful mobility of diplomacy must increase.”
Continuing, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution outlined some recommendations
and solutions to resolve the economic woes.
He described as necessary the drawing up of a "roadmap for a stable economy,”
adding, "If a roadmap for economy is devised, the people and economic agents
will be aware of their conditions and will rush to the aid of the administration
with a sense of stability and calm.”
"The enhancement of the private sector” and "the need to resolutely confront
law-breakers” were two other recommendations made by Ayatollah Khamenei.
In this regard, he pointed to transgressions by some government institutions and
individuals regarding the recent issues of gold coins and foreign currency
market, stressing, "Offenders must be dealt with, whatever their status.”
The Leader of the Islamic Revolution described as positive the order issued the
previous day by the president to address the violation in the imports of
vehicles, adding, "These directives must be followed through, so that they would
lead to a satisfactory outcome.”
He described as imperative "the administration’s command and exercise of
power over financial transactions to prevent destructive operations such as
smuggling and money-laundering” and pointed to some offences committed in
using foreign currency provided at the official rate. He said, "Such blatant
violations must be stopped via relevant systems or constitutional regulations.”
"Taking Resistance Economy policies seriously,” "Timely action and prevention of
incidents before their occurrence” and "genuinely combating corruption” were
other issues highlighted by the Leader of the Islamic Revolution in the meeting.
He stressed that in the campaign against offences, first corruption and
lawbreakers must be dealt with and then this should be transparently publicized,
saying, "Of course, the issue of countering the corrupt is in the first place a
responsibility of the authorities of government institutions and the issue
should then be delegated to the Judiciary.”
Ayatollah Khamenei said "officials speaking face to face with the people and
describing the situation” is necessary, reiterating, "Discuss the problems with
the people and while outlining your measures, elaborate the enemy plot for
them.”
In conclusion, he said, "I earnestly believe that the administration, provided
that it takes the necessary measures, will succeed to overcome the problems and
foil US plots.”
In the meeting, Rouhani addressed the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, saying,
"We will summon all our efforts to execute and put into practice the points that
you mentioned.”
The president pointed to the effort by the enemy to arouse concern among the
people about the future and create inflation expectations, adding, "Despite all
the psychological and economic bids of Iran’s enemies, the country’s foreign and
domestic currency revenues in the first three months of the current [Persian
calendar] year (March 21 – June 21) has been greater than those of the
corresponding period last year and in the development sector the credit
allocated and provided has been 22 times more than the previous year.”
Rouhani stressed that some issues such as the problems of the banking and
liquidity systems is not related to sanctions and foreign pressure and have
existed from before and pointed to the administration plans to resolve these
issues. He said, "The settlement of these issues is on the main agenda of the
Supreme Economic Cooperation Council and the administration’s Economic
Committee.”
The president also described as crucial complete coordination among the three
branches of the government and government institutions to thwart the US plots.
