Iran must end all internal opposition and dissent, the country’s leader Ayatollah Sayed Ali Khamenei said yesterday.
He has instructed the state’s intelligence agencies to “neutralize enemy plots in all political, economic, social and cultural domain,” according to the official Iranian news agency IRNA.
“Ayatollah Khamenei in a meeting with Information Minister Hojatoleslam Ali Younesi and a group of his ministry’s staff revealed ‘deep rooted and strong’ hostility of the enemies of the Islamic Revolution against the Information Ministry and called on different echelons of the ministry’s staff to be fully alert, get in close communion with God Almighty and avoid any diversion and corruption to block the enemy’s goals,” IRNA reported. “Ayatollah Khamenei said Ministry of Intelligence should identify and ward off the complicated methods of the enemy in the political, economic, social and cultural arenas.”
