Iran Press/ Iran news: Speaking on Tuesday, in a meeting with the head and a group of commanders of the Basij Mostazafin Organisation, while congratulating the Basij Week, Ayatollah Sayyed Ebrahim Raisi said: “The Basij is a strong, fruitful tree that was formed with the wisdom of the Late Imam Khomeini (RA) and with each day passing by, it is giving more and more fruits to the Iranian nation and the Islamic community.”
Referring to the comprehensiveness and reassurance of the Basij for the Iranian nation, the President said: "At the head of this revolutionary complex, the Supreme Leader of the Revolution, Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khamenei and in its body, the people across the country are present and the Basij goes beyond political, partisan and group currents.”
Raisi described it as necessary to strengthen the Basij's missions to solve people's problems and said: "Opposition movements seek deviations in thought and action in various cultural, social and political fields, but Basij is a strong barrier against these deviations.”

The President added: "The enemy, with its money, power and media, seeks to reduce the revolutionary forces and make changes in the lifestyle and morals of the people, but because the growth and expansion of Basij’s missions are high, they have always failed."
The President described the Basij as one of the most important components of the country's power and said: "The pervasive current of the Basij has become the key to protecting the Islamic system due to its responsibility, risk-taking and presence in various stages."
Raisi described the Basij programs and actions in various fields of social, cultural, scientific, technological, resistance economy and especially civil engineering and construction in deprived areas as valuable solutions to solve people's problems and said: "The government is determined to use Basij's capacity to solve people’s concerns and problems."
The President stressed the importance of efforts and planning to revive and strengthen the spirit of hope and trust among the people and said: "The enemy's strategy is to spread despair and hopelessness in society, and in this situation it is necessary to put all the system's capacities together for creating a change in the lives of the people and solving the problems of the country, give the people hope for the future, and in this regard, the government is ready to support with all its might."
