�Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei stated on Wednesday that the liberation of Khorramshahr was a miraculous event.






He made the remarks during a meeting with Iranian lawmakers, marking the beginning of the last year of the current parliament�s term as well as the anniversary of the liberation of Khorramshahr in the midst of Iraq�s war of aggression against Iran in the 1980s.

�The conquest of Khorramshahr was a miraculous event,� he said, recalling that several presidents and their representatives told him at the time that the event was a game-changer for Iran.

In another comment, Ayatollah Khamenei said the strategic law adopted by the Iranian Parliament in 2020 to counter sanctions saved the country from �bewilderment in nuclear issue�.

In a meeting with lawmakers in Tehran on Wednesday, Ayatollah Khamenei hailed the strategic laws passed by the parliament, including the Strategic Action Plan to Counter Sanctions.

�The strategic action law saved the country from bewilderment in the nuclear issue,� the Leader said. �This law clearly defined what we should do and we are witnessing its manifestations in the world.�

Under the legislation, which was approved in December 2020, the Iranian administration is required to restrict the inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and accelerate the development of the country�s nuclear program beyond the limits set under the 2015 nuclear agreement. It was adopted in a bid to counter illegal sanctions imposed on Iran by the United States and its Western allies.
