Whether Iran has enrichment or not, what does it matter to you? Who\u00a0are you? the Leader said, addressing the US.<\/p>\n<p>Ayatollah Khamenei said Iran has achieved a complete nuclear fuel cycle with great efforts, adding the nuclear industry is not just for energy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe nuclear industry is a parent industry. Numerous scientific fields are affected by the nuclear industry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Leader said Iran, with a growing, stable and authoritative\u00a0political system born of a great revolution, has surprised the Western world.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe leader of our revolution is a great man whose presence in the world is still tangible after thirty-odd years since his passing, and the impact of his revolution is clearly visible to people around the world,\u201d Ayatollah Khamenei said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe sharp decline in America&#8217;s position in the world is due to his presence, and hatred of Zionists is due to his revolution,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Ayatollah Khamenei touched on \u201ca movement towards aversion to Western values\u201d in the world, saying it is rooted in the revolution created by Imam Khomeini.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Islamic Revolution of Iran surprised the Western world.
