He warned against disunity and urged vigilance against foreign interference, claiming enemies are trying to discourage participation and influence the vote.
Khamenei alleged that these “enemies” aim to undermine the Islamic Republic by amplifying existing divisions, using various methods to achieve their goals. He emphasized the importance of a high voter turnout to demonstrate national unity and resilience against external pressures. He called for unity and urged people to focus on national interests.
The statement comes amidst heightened tensions in the region and concerns about economic challenges within Iran. Khamenei’s remarks reflect the leadership’s perception of external threats and their efforts to maintain stability and control during a politically sensitive period. He framed the elections as a test of Iran’s strength and a chance to defy what he perceives as hostile foreign agendas.
