SAEDNEWS: Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi compared Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei’s leadership during a recent national crisis to the biblical parting of the sea by Moses, crediting him with safeguarding Iran’s defensive and national unity against external threats.
According to the news outlet Saed News, Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi emphasized in a televised interview:
"We must not overlook or fail to acknowledge the wise and courageous leadership of the Supreme Leader—both over the past years and especially during this particular period. Truly, whether during our diplomatic engagements and negotiations or when we found ourselves in a defensive posture, he led with wisdom, bravery, insight, and boldness. Like the staff of Moses, his leadership opened up paths and prevented the enemies from achieving their goals—namely, dismantling our defensive capabilities, command structure, and national unity."
Araghchi added:
"He managed to revive and restore all of this in a short period of time. The phrase ‘staff of Moses’ that I used—I genuinely witnessed its relevance during those twelve days. Just as the staff of Moses parted the sea and opened a path, the Leader’s guidance cleared the way in every matter and brought forth this epic achievement."
