The nuclear industry is one of the fundamental, important components of the country's power. It gives the country credibility, strength, and power. If you want a strong Iran, whoever loves Iran, whoever loves the Islamic Republic, and whoever loves the [Iranian] nation and wants this country to be strong, should care about and realize the importance of the scientific, research, and industrial endeavors that are taking place here. This is the very reason why our enemies are focusing on [our] nuclear energy.
