The following is the full text of the message of Ayatollah Khamenei, Leader of the Islamic Revolution, sent on January 13, 2013 to the participants of the 47th annual meeting of the Union of the Islamic Student Associations in Europe.
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Dear students, you are the future managers of Iran. Iran - with a wealth of scientific and practical experience - should be managed by great and competent managers and it should take big and quick steps towards the specified strategic plans with determination, faith, wisdom and courage of people like you.
You and all the dear youth and children of the Iranian nation, wherever you are, should prepare yourselves for playing a determining role at this level. As always, I continue to pray for you.
May God be your friend and helper
Sayyid Ali Khamenei
