Supreme Leader rebukes US for failure to honor JCPOA undertakings

The Supreme Leader made the remarks in a meeting with several thousand people coming from different provinces.

People of Sistan- Baluchestan, Kerman, Lorestan, Kermanshah, Ardebil and West Azarbaijan provinces from all walks of life called on the Supreme Leader.

The Supreme Leader encouraged the people to focus on the domestic capabilities to stimulate national economy and work for the welfare of the nation.

The Supreme Leader renewed Iranian complaint about procrastination of the US Department of Treasury to authorize the European banks to do business with Iran, saying that the way Washington dealt with the nuclear accord served as another example for the United States failure to keep promise in international relations.

Ayatollah Khamenei said that the US procrastination to implement the nuclear deal must be taken as an experience that Iranians must rely on their own domestic capacities and resources to achieve economic development and improve life standards of people.

The Supreme Leader made clear that the enemies of Iranian nation are used to creating difficulties for Iran in the region and the entire world and that the people must contemplate on utilization of their own capacities.

Presence of people from all walks of life from different provinces proved that the Iranian people irrespective to their languages, ethnicity and religions are united to introduce the Islamic Republic of Iran as an exemplary model in terms of spirituality and material life to world nations to invite other Muslim nations to stand against colonialist policies of the global arrogance, the Supreme Leader said.

Lauding the breakthrough Iranians have made in scientific, political and social fields after triumph of the Islamic revolution, the Supreme Leader said Iranians who were dependent on US and Britain and treated as backwarded and humiliated, have turned into a mighty nation regarded as a rival for global powers in regional developments.

There is no doubt that that turning to an exemplary model will be very time consuming approach requiring collective restless efforts of the government as well as nation, the Supreme Leader said.
