The full text of his congratulatory message reads:
In the name of God, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
Dear Brother Brigadier General Dr. Nasirzadeh,
Honorable Minister of Defense and Armed Forces Logistics,
Greetings,
I congratulate you and the respected officials, staff, and devoted workers of the Ministry of Defense on the arrival of August 22, “Defense Industry Day,” which recalls the lofty resolve and sincere struggles of our great martyrs and the tireless revolutionary servants of this field.
Undoubtedly, the glorious achievements of Iran’s defense industry are the product of faith, self-reliance, creativity, and relentless effort by the revolutionary sons of the nation, which under the guidance of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief, have charted the course of defensive independence. Today, thanks to these capacities, the Islamic Republic of Iran stands tall in deterrent power.
The experience of the 12-day Sacred Defense during the recent imposed war by the United States and the Zionist regime once again proved that the strategy of comprehensive defense empowerment and reliance on domestic capabilities prevents enemies from achieving their sinister goals and deters them from further adventurism.
I sincerely thank you and your colleagues for your revolutionary, faithful, and devoted efforts in the field of defense industry, and I emphasize the need for ever-increasing synergy and coordination between the Ministry of Defense and the Armed Forces. I am confident that continuing this path will bring about a brighter and more honorable future in fulfilling the goals of the Islamic Revolution and ensuring the nation’s lasting security.
On this occasion, we once again assure the great nation of Iran that the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic, following the guidance of the Supreme Leader and Commander-in-Chief, stand at the highest level of alertness and readiness. Recalling the fate of the 12-day imposed war, they will decisively, swiftly, and forcefully confront any miscalculation by the enemy against a strong Iran.
I pray to Almighty God for increasing success for you and all your colleagues in the Ministry of Defense in continuing the path of Iran’s martyrs, especially those in the defense industry, and in advancing the strategies that guarantee the enhancement of military and defense power with a vision toward the lofty, civilization-building goals of the Islamic Revolution.
