President Raisi says Iran has made opportunities out of threats

Tehran, IRNA – Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi said that the Iranian nation has turned the threats and arbitrary sanctions of the enemies into opportunities.

The president made the remarks in a meeting with a group of scholars and elites from different Chinese universities in Beijing on Wednesday.

He said that relations between independent states makes it possible for them to share views and defuse threats and sanctions.

President Raisi said that what has put Iran and China besides each other is their civilizational background as well as their common stands in defiance of unilateral measures of certain countries and their independence-seeking nature.  

Noting that the only way to stand against the threats of the US and its allies is resistance, the president said that resistance removes the threats and will also turn the threats into opportunities for making progress.
