Seyyed Hadi Khamenei: We have no choice but to engage in serious and purposeful dialogue.
Seyyed Hadi Khamenei, the Secretary-General of the Assembly of the Forces of the Imam’s Line, said in a joint meeting of the central council members and provincial secretaries of this reformist organization
Our path is clear; we have no choice but to engage in serious and purposeful dialogue within the framework of national issues and interests. When we talk about dialogue, it means everyone should be ready to listen to others, even if their words are bitter.
Some constantly speak of enemy interference and the chaos they create. Of course, those who, through their mistakes, have caused the youth’s protests and, as you call it, disturbances, might indeed be agents of the enemy. Do you accept this?
If we objected to the supervisory oversight, it was to ensure the formation of an efficient parliament that emerges from the majority’s vote, to be the essence of the nation’s virtues, and to represent the existing tastes in society. If we spoke of the necessity of considering expert opinions, it was to utilize the advice of the country’s elites, apart from partisan views, to reduce harms in various cultural and social fields.
You can see right now that people are in the worst economic conditions, yet government officials talk about improving the situation. It’s clear they are not in the market and among the people, and they are unaware of the prices, inflation, and recession.
It is unacceptable for the children of the people to be stuck here for work and basic necessities of life while the children and families of some officials enjoy the best facilities abroad. This discrimination and inequality do not go unnoticed by the people.
We cannot invite people to religious values and, at the same time, be caught in misunderstanding, distortion, and rigidity, which leads to people turning away from religion and religious values.
