📌 Tehran, IRNA – President of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Masoud Pezeshkian, stresses that national unity and solidarity are essential to overcoming current challenges, saying no power can bring Iran to a standstill if its people stand together and reject exclusionary approaches.
On Sunday, Pezeshkian made remarks at a meeting with prominent figures, scientists, cultural personalities, sports veterans and academic elite from Tehran Province.
The president warned that internal exclusion and self-imposed restrictions could undermine national strength, saying the country can withstand external pressure if it avoids marginalizing its own people.
If Iranians do not undermine themselves through self-imposed restrictions or selective exclusion, the enemy cannot defeat them or bring them to their knees, he said, calling for opportunities that enable young people to develop their potential.
Pezeshkian instructed Tehran’s governor and mayor to prioritize addressing the problems of retired athletes, stressing that honoring veterans was essential to encouraging younger generations. He also called for a sustainable employment model to secure the professional futures of national champions.

Addressing energy shortages, Pezeshkian said the government was determined to keep production running, even if parts of the state administration had to suspend operations to conserve energy.
He also highlighted the construction of 35,000 classrooms with public participation, adding that the government was equipping them with modern educational tools and exploring artificial intelligence to support learning.
Pezeshkian urged national unity, perseverance and cooperation, saying every Iran’s cities and villages could become models of achievement if people were given the opportunity to reach their full potential.
