Iran must continue nanotechnology progress: Ayatollah Khamenei

Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei says Iran should continue to make more progress in the field of nanotechnology and biotechnology, which can serve as a model for progress in other sectors.

The Leader made the remarks in a Saturday visit to an exhibition displaying Iran's latest nanotechnology achievements.

Ayatollah Khamenei added that maintaining the elements that have caused progress is necessary to continue making more achievements.

The Leader stated that “accurate planning” and “stability in management” are among the factors that can contribute to continued progress in nanotechnology.

Ayatollah Khamenei added that political motivations should not affect the country’s scientific and research arenas.

The Leader further pointed to the enmity of bullying powers with the Iranian nation due to its independent political, social and intellectual approaches and said, “This hostility exposes itself in different fields. So, we should make ourselves stronger day by day to achieve the necessary strength.”
