Araghchi: The Syrian Army was defeated before fighting

ISNA - Sayyed Abbas Araghchi stated at the fourth festival to celebrate the managers and employees of the school of thought of Hajj Qassem: Hajj Qassem Soleimani transformed the school of resistance into a resistance movement and front, and this movement continues to be strong and proud in the region and fights the Zionist regime and the arrogant powers.

The school of resistance cannot be destroyed by military strikes and bombing

Stating that the school of resistance cannot be destroyed by military strikes and bombing, Araghchi said: The main weapon of the school of resistance is the blood of martyrs, and this is something that our enemies do not understand.

He added: This blood will spread the resistance movement.

With the blood of Martyr Nasrallah, the Lebanese Hezbollah movement becomes stronger and more fruitful

The Foreign Minister of Iran continued: The Resistance Front has been growing throughout its life, and the enemies should not think that their recent blows will create a weakness in this front, but rather this school will become stronger and bigger.

Referring to the martyrdom of a number of resistance leaders, including Martyr Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, in recent months, he said: I have no doubt that with the blood of Martyr Nasrallah, the Lebanese Hezbollah movement will become stronger and more fruitful.

Stating that "part of the school of resistance is the diplomacy of resistance," the Foreign Minister of the Islamic Republic of Iran said: The field and resistance complement each other and are not separate from each other.

The Field paves the way for diplomacy with its power

Stating that "Field paves the way for diplomacy with its power," Araghchi said: We have seen a tangible manifestation of the cooperation between the field and diplomacy in the country's political scene in recent months.

The Foreign Minister of the Islamic Republic of Iran stated that "I have always said that alongside the field and diplomacy, there is a third axis called the media." He continued: The enemy has made a large investment in the third side, the media.

The defeat of the Syrian army should be a wake-up call

In explaining this investment and its effects, Araghchi referred to the recent developments in Syria and said: The blow that was dealt to the Syrian army before it was military was media and psychological. In fact, the Syrian army was defeated before fighting and could not stand up. This should be a wake-up call for us to be careful of the atmosphere that the enemies are trying to create and not allow them to spread an atmosphere of despair and hopelessness in the country.

Stating that "today, more than ever, we must take care of morale and not allow the enemies to create despair and instability in morale through the media," the Foreign Minister continued: "It is more necessary than ever to maintain the morale of the people and different strata in the current very serious circumstances."

Thanking Basij for holding this meeting, Araghchi said: This shows that Basij is firmly present on the scene and does not forget its role.

We must show the enemies that we are still strong, hopeful and motivated on the scene

Stating that "Basij is now present in various social, military, cultural, economic and ... areas of the country and must show its presence," the Foreign Minister of the Islamic Republic of Iran said: We must show the enemies that we are still strong, hopeful and motivated on the scene and we will not allow their blows and efforts to create a disruption in our will.

Thanking Basij for its activities in various areas and stating that "my son also served in Basij," Araghchi said: I am happy that I was able to be present among you Basij members today and meet with you.
