The record of repeated invasions by European and American foreigners\u2014the insecurities, damages, and multiple threats they have imposed on the region\u2019s countries\u2014reflects only a fraction of the malicious schemes of global oppressors against the peoples of the Persian Gulf,\u201d the message read.<\/p>\n<p>The most recent example was the bullying and military provocations of the \u2018Great Satan,\u2019 Ayatollah Khamenei said, referring to the United States\u2019 military aggression and illegal naval blockade.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Iranian nation, endowed with the longest coastline along the Persian Gulf, has made the greatest sacrifices for its independence and the defense of the region against foreign invaders: from expelling the Portuguese and liberating the Strait of Hormuz\u2014which inspired the designation of April 30 as National Persian Gulf Day\u2014to struggles against Dutch colonialism and heroic resistance toward British imperialism.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Islamic Revolution marked a turning point in this centuries-old movement to drive out arrogant powers from the Persian Gulf, the Leader noted.<\/p>\n<p>Now, two months after the largest military mobilization and invasion attempt by the world\u2019s bullies, and following America\u2019s humiliating failure in its schemes, \u201ca new chapter is being written for the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ayatollah Khamenei said that over the past sixty days, the nations of the Persian Gulf have witnessed the brave resolve, vigilance, and struggle of Iran\u2019s naval forces from the Army and the IRGC, alongside the courage and valor of the southern people and youth of beloved Iran, in rejecting foreign dominance.<\/p>\n<p>By the grace of God and through the blood of the martyrs of the Third Imposed War, particularly under the wise leadership of the great Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, it has become evident to the world and the regional states that US military presence in the Persian Gulf is the chief cause of insecurity in the region, the Leader noted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAmerica\u2019s hollow bases can barely guarantee their own safety, let alone that of their dependents or pro-American allies in the area,\u201d he asserted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy divine will, the future of the Persian Gulf will be bright\u2014a future free of America, devoted to progress, peace, and prosperity for its nations. We, the peoples and neighbors of the Persian Gulf and the Sea of Oman, share a common destiny, and the foreigners who covetously meddle here from thousands of kilometers away have no rightful place, except at the depths of its waters,\u201d Ayatollah Khamenei said.<\/p>\n<p>Today, 90 million Iranian people at home and abroad regard all national assets, including identity, spirituality, human talent, scientific innovation, industry, and fundamental technologies\u2014from nano and bio to nuclear and missile (technologies)\u2014as their collective heritage, he added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey will guard them as faithfully as they guard Iran\u2019s land, air, and sea borders.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Source: IRNA<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iran Supreme Leader says the Persian Gulf can thrive without America, rejecting any role for foreign powers in the region TEHRAN: Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei says the Islamic Republic will enforce a new legal framework to manage the Strait of Hormuz, ushering in \u201ca new chapter\u201d for the Persian Gulf [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":18317,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2297,2299],"tags":[3814,3765],"class_list":["post-18430","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-latest-news","category-world","tag-ayatollah-seyed-mojtaba-khamenei","tag-iran-usa-israel-war"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newspulse.com.pk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18430","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newspulse.com.pk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newspulse.com.pk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newspulse.com.pk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newspulse.com.pk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18430"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/newspulse.com.pk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18430\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18432,"href":"https:\/\/newspulse.com.pk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18430\/revisions\/18432"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newspulse.com.pk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18317"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newspulse.com.pk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18430"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newspulse.com.pk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18430"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newspulse.com.pk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18430"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
