Imam Khamenei warned about the ongoing attempts made by the United States and some world powers to equip "Israel" with more nuclear weapons, noting that the issue "constitutes an extreme danger for the region and the UN is expected to adopt measures in this respect."
Moreover, Imam Khamenei criticized the "defective structure" of the UN and regretted how "the world most bullying powers, who possess nuclear weapons and have used them before, have dominated the Security Council."

Referring to the US-engineered allegations against Iran's nuclear energy program Imam Khamenei stated "The Americans are fully aware that Iran does not seek nuclear weapons and [they are] merely looking for a pretext."
Imam Khamenei condemned US and "Israeli" attempts to launch cyber attacks against Iran's nuclear facilities and criticized the IAEA over its inaction with regard to such aggressive measures.
Ayatollah Khamenei also criticized United Nations for its inaction toward the US military threats against Iran, reminding that the world body "was expected to promptly counter the threat."
Addressing the Syrian unrest, Leader of the Islamic Revolution described the crisis as a "very bitter issue" which has been taking a heavy toll on the "innocent people of the country."
"Based on its religious teachings and beliefs, the Islamic Republic of Iran is ready to make every effort to solve the Syrian crisis," the Leader added.
Ayatollah Khamenei deplored the arming of the Syrian insurgents by foreign elements and perpetuation of a "proxy war" against the Syrian government by certain countries as the major obstacle in the way of settling the Syrian crisis.
