Full implementation of Economy of Resistance will bring about dramatic changes in the country's economic situation, he said in a meeting with the members of Assembly of Experts.

According to IRNA, Ayatollah Khamenei further noted that mentioning the Economy of Resistance in the words of the officials and experts reveals that the theoretical framework is acceptable, but what is important is to implement it in practice.

Describing foreign investment as a valuable move, the Supreme Leader said that only a little part of foreign agreements have so far been implemented and 'We should not sit and wait for their investment and we should first do whatever we can.'

Elsewhere in his statements, Ayatollah Khamenei touched on the reasons why the arrogant powers are hostile towards Iran, and said that the main reason is that the Islamic Republic is seeking to establish the genuine Mohammaden Islam and is moving towards the ideals.

Saving the country from dependence on the powers and closing the ways for their abuse are among the major achievements of the establishment of the genuine Mohammaden Islam, the Leader said.

Mounting economic pressures and all-out cultural onslaught are among the major pivots of the enemies' operations, Ayatollah Khamenei said, noting that their main aim is to disappoint and take away the basic support for the officials against the enemies.

The Supreme Leader also hailed the performance of the Expediency Council and described it as exceptional, influential in the country's present and future.

Ayatollah Khamenei also derided the US slam of Iran’s elections and noted that Americans which have friendly cooperation with the most inhumane, evil regimes of the region and experienced such big scandals in the recent election there, dare to criticize the elections in Iran.

'Despite ceaseless attack of all superpowers and Zionists’ media emperorship after Iran’s 1979 revolution, the Iranian nation has made big achievements in all fields,' the Leader added.
