On the eve of the Army Day, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei on Sunday visited Shahid Sattari Aviation Academy for four hours inspecting different educational and scientific sections of the Academy.
The Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces said that he was pleased to see young cadets working in different workshops in the academy.
Ayatollah Khamenei said that graduates of the Aviation Academy should learn science and technology, because they will undertake guardianship of the sky of Iran and security of the great nation.
The Supreme Leader said that his visit to the Aviation Academy aimed to honor the Army Day.
Ayatollah Khamenei said that students of the Academy are both educated and well-disciplined which guarantees their success for serving the security of the nation.
The Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces said that acquisition of science and technology by the youth of a country serves national identity.
Despite backwardness of the pre-revolution era, the youth have made advances in this field in the past 26 years thanks to the blessings of the Islamic Revolution, the Supreme Leader said citing the progress Iran has made in the field of nuclear energy, producing basic cells, manufacturing airplanes, successes in the International Olympiads and scientific contests.
The Supreme Leader recalled "the admirable and surprising action of the Iranian nation in toppling the puppet regime of Pahlavi" and said that victory of the Islamic Revolution had been the outcome of deep faith of the nation in Islam.
"The young generation is expected to exercise vigilance to safeguard the achievements of the Islamic Revolution. In the past 26 years, the United States and the Zionist regime have spared no effort to strike a blow to the Islamic Republic, but, the great nation is moving forward to progress. God willing, the process will continue," the Supreme Leader said.
The Supreme Leader said that the superpowers are intriguing the world with human rights slogans on the one hand and diving the mankind to the first degree and second degree on the other.
"Absolutely, the humanity will stand against such division, because the international community needs justice and will endeavor to restore justice," the Supreme Leader said.
