Islamic Movement Seeks Guidance from Imam Khomeini’s Sayings
Former Iranian ambassador to Mexico and Australia Dr. Mohammad Hossein Ghadiri Abyaneh made these remarks during an interview with Jamaran News Agency in Tehran.
He went on to say that the famous saying by the Islamic Republic’s founder, Imam Khomeini, has also formed the very basis and axis of the Iranian foreign policy over more than the past three decades.
Abyaneh also noted that the NAM movement was founded by the independent-minded leaders such as Jawaharlal Nehru from India, Sukarno from Indonesia, Tito from Yugoslavia and Jamal Abdel Nasser from Egypt during the cold war in 1960s.
Iran joined the movement immediately following the victory of the Islamic revolution in the country in 1979, the former ambassador noted.
He also emphasized that the movement can enhance its performance and adopts independent stances in a bid to resolve ongoing international crisis by seeking guidance from Imam’s sayings and slogans.
The ambassador also praised the Imam’s courage saying that he stood against the enemies’ tyranny and injustice relying on the God’s infinite power.
The Islamic Republic founded by the great Imam has successfully resisted to sanctions, threats, conspiracies and military pressures over the past 33 years. It proves that system has been functional and successful and it must be considered as a great accomplishment, the ambassador concluded.
His comments come after over 100 countries participated in 16th NAM summit, which was held in Tehran from 26 to 31 August.
