While he acknowledged the hard economic conditions for the people and the tightness of livelihood for a large portion of the country\u2019s population, but he still claimed that his regime is not at a deadlock.\u00a0 That is despite the rising tensions between Iran and the international community following May 2018 decision by US President Donald Trump to withdraw from 2015 nuclear agreement between Tehran and world powers.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. administration re-imposed more economic sanctions on the Iranian regime last month.\u00a0 These sanctions were lifted under the nuclear deal in exchange for a curb on Tehran\u2019s nuclear thirst. The second round of penalties targeting Iran\u2019s oil exports is due to come into effect early November.<\/p>\n<p>At the moment, the sanctions have sent Iran\u2019s economy into a spiral downfall with its national currency, rial, hitting record lows.<\/p>\n<p>For this reason, Khamenei tried to warn his supporters against the \u201cenemy\u201d saying that the \u201cenemy has fully lined up in front of them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As usual, he blamed the enemy for his regime\u2019s troubles and threatened that anyone advocating more negotiations with the \u201cenemy\u201d will be considered a traitor.<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/2018\/08\/16\/khamenei-uprising-nuclear-deal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Khamenei\u2019s dilemma<\/strong><\/a><\/h2>\n<p>In his seventy-minute speech, Khamenei offered absolutely no solutions to the difficulties engulfing his regime or for the sensitive situation he was speaking about.\u00a0\u00a0 He did not deliver any remedy to the downward falling value of the national currency or the high costs of livelihood for the majority of the Iranian citizens. And, he certainly suggested no resolutions to the international isolation that is chocking his regime due to warmongering policies he has pursued in the region and his missile and nuclear programs.<\/p>\n<p>In short, during his 70 minute speech, Khamenei was only attempting to show that his regime is not at a deadlock.\u00a0 \u201cIn spite of the pressure, you endure,\u201d Khamenei reiterated, repeating claims, such as the so-called Islamic Republic\u2019s might and invincibility.<\/p>\n<p>More than anyone else, the absurdity of these claims is apparent to Khamenei himself.\u00a0 \u201cThese aren\u2019t saber-rattling. They are not mere slogans. They are not hollow words like those uttered by others.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But for those people who deeply feel the dire economic and social conditions, Khamenei\u2019s claims are nothing but total deceptions. The situation has become so disastrous for the fundamentalist regime now, that all signs indicate the coming of a storm that will lead to the downfall of the mullahs\u2019 rule.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Related:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h5 class=\"title\"><strong><a class=\"post-title post-url\" href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/2018\/08\/16\/khamenei-uprising-nuclear-deal\/\">Khamenei\u2019s Impasse, People\u2019s Uprising, Dire Economic Condition, And Hopeless Nuclear Deal<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5 class=\"title\"><strong><a class=\"post-title post-url\" href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/2018\/08\/14\/khamenei-iran-ncri-regime\/\">After Several Weeks Of Silence, Khamenei\u2019s Remarks Showed That He Has No Way Out Of His\u2026<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5 class=\"title\"><strong><a class=\"post-title post-url\" href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/2018\/08\/11\/ali-khamenei-supreme-leader-iran-regime\/\">Ali Khamenei:\u00a0\u00a0Vali-e Faqih (Supreme Leader) Of Iran Regime<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5 class=\"title\"><strong><a class=\"post-title post-url\" href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/2018\/06\/06\/uprising-khamenei-protests\/\">Uprising: Khamenei On Further Protests, Uprising<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5 class=\"title\"><strong><a class=\"post-title post-url\" href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/2018\/05\/09\/iran-video-burning-of-two-large-banners-of-khamenei-in-the-cities-of-tabriz-and-yasuj-by-the-cent\/\">Iran Video Burning Of Two Large Banners Of Khamenei In The Cities Of Tabriz And Yasuj By The Cent<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5 class=\"title\"><strong><a class=\"post-title post-url\" href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/2018\/05\/09\/people-writing-on-walls-in-iran-death-to-khamenei-death-to-rohani\/\">People Writing On Walls In Iran: Death To Khamenei, Death To Rohani<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Khamenei \u2019s Attempt To Boost Basij Forces Morale Before looking at the actual content of Khamenei\u2019s latest remarks, it is important to consider the reasons behind his decision to speak to the Para-military Basij forces at the Azadi stadium in Tehran.
