Tehran, YJC. The Islamic Republic Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has said the issue of Palestine tops the priorities of the Muslim world.
Making the remarks on Tuesday at a meeting with Secretary
General of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) Ahmed
Jibril in Tehran, the leader stressed that Iran will firmly stand by the
Palestinian people.
"The Islamic
Republic of Iran will stand firm until the day when the cause of Palestine is
realized, and our youths will certainly see that day,” the leader stressed.
Ayatollah Khamenei praised efforts by the PFLP’s chief to
materialize the Palestinian cause, describing him as "one of the pillars of the
issue of Palestine.”
He also expressed hope that Jibril would continue resistance
with the spirit he has right to the final victory.
Jibril, in turn, said the Islamic Revolution has changed Iran into an internationally
robust and active country.
He noted that Iran owes its progress to Ayatollah Khamenei’s vigilance and tact.
The Palestinian leader also appreciated the Islamic Republic’s principled
stance on restoring the Palestinian people’s rights.
