US Not Able to Infiltrate Iran: EC Secretary

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Secretary of Iran’s Expediency Council Mohsen Rezaei renewed a call for increased vigilance of the Iranian youths and authorities in the face of the US plots but at the same time underlined that Washington cannot make inroads into the Islamic Republic.

“Had the US been able to infiltrate into Iran, it would have done so many times (so far),” Rezaei told reporters on Saturday, adding, “The Americans are not able to infiltrate into Iran.”

The Iranian youths should be informed about the West’s record over the past 100 years and the tragedies caused by Britain and the US around the world, he noted.

Rezaei further emphasized that “knowledge and insight” are the most important factors that can prevent the infiltration of the US into the country.

In similar remarks on Wednesday, Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei urged vigilance in the face of enemy ploys to gain a political and cultural foothold in Iran, warning that the consequences of such infiltration would be much worse than that of enemy’s economic influence.

“Economic and security infiltration is of course dangerous and has dire consequences, but the enemy’s political and cultural infiltration (into Iran) is a much more serious threat that everyone should be vigilant about,” Ayatollah Khamenei said in a meeting with hundreds of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) commanders in Tehran.

Describing the enemy’s attempts to find a way into Iran as one of the “major threats”, the Leader called on the IRGC forces to be wary of such peril.

As part of plans for cultural infiltration, the enemy has made heavy investment to gradually change the Iranian people’s beliefs, the Leader explained.

“In the political field, the aliens seek to infiltrate into the decision-making centers,” Imam Khamenei noted, warning that implementation of that plot will put the country’s decisions and approaches under the influence of foreigners.
