Iran Press/ Iran News: Hassan Rouhani said on Sunday at the beginning of the 2020-2021 academic year of the country's universities and higher education centers: "I congratulate all professors and students across the country on the beginning of the academic year."
He added: "I wish the health protocols and instructions allowed me to be close to you, among the educated and professors of the high-ranking department of culture and dear students, as in previous years, but the implementation of the instructions of the National Task Force for Fighting Coronavirus is necessary for all of us and from the first day I was confronted with Corona, I was obliged to follow the protocols in my participation in meetings, trips, programs, and activities.
Rouhani stated: "I believe that breaching the protocol should not be practiced in our minds, even though in some cases the implementation of protocols is not compatible with human emotions."
The President said: "I thank all the responsible officials and universities of the country who did their best in the last semester and at the beginning of the academic year so that scholars and students do not stop studying science."
The president went on to say that we believe that our society, just as it needs essential needs such as oxygen, air, water, and food, it needs science and knowledge and scientific and research activities and this need and desire should not be left neglected. The conditions for studying in the current situation are different from the past, and we must all continue to study science and students within the framework of health regulations.
Elsewhere in his remarks, the President pointed out: The country is facing two big problems today. We all know that we have not seen such sanctions not in the history of Iran, but perhaps less in the history of the world. We have been facing this severe embargo since the beginning of 2018 and the whole of 2018, 2019, and today, half of 2020. But at the same time, we did not allow our enemies to achieve their main goal, which was to break the grandeur of this system and make the people desperate and surrender the country and the system to their unjust will.
Rouhani highlighted that our oil revenue in one year, in 2011, was 120 billion dollars, and last year, in 2019, it was a little more than 20 billion dollars, that is, from 120 to 20 billion dollars, and this shows what society is facing with. We have to stand on our own feet and we have to look inside. We have to use our domestic abilities and we should not look abroad, but there is also the fact that without interacting with the world, living is very difficult and sometimes impossible.
He stated that in addition to its strategic goals, the enemy has failed in all its political and legal goals, adding: "If they have created problems in the economic and financial fields, but in the political and legal fields, they have suffered unparalleled failures."
"Our enemies at the United Nations, who consider it their backyard and thought that whenever they have something to do, the Security Council and the United Nations are in their control and can easily carry out their actions, but the Americans in recent months at least have faced three major historical failures," Iranian President added.
Rouhani said that one of the goals of the Americans was to reinstate the arms embargo. In the UN and the Security Council, out of 15 votes, only two votes were for them and one small country, and another 13 votes against them. In the so-called "snapback mechanism", none of the members of the UN Security Council agreed with the United States.
He noted that the Americans, who always promise the end of the month (September 30 - September 20) and say" we will win at the end of the month ", have not been able to start this process at all, which is one of the great political and legal achievements of the Iranian nation in history. They wanted to start a plan as a "snapback mechanism" in which there is a one-month opportunity, but to date, it has not been able to start the plan, which means that the Security Council has so far ignored the American plan.
