My dear students, brave daughters and sons of Iran,

You have unified the reopening of the universities with the resounding cry of the nation and demonstrated the unbreakable bond between the university and the people. You showed that Iran lives on and that the will of the nation cannot be silenced.

Nearly fifty years ago, my father foresaw how future generations would judge him and his service. Today, you have given history its answer. His spirit is at peace, because he sees that the children of Iran are awake and, with courage and clarity, are standing up to reclaim Iran.

Remain united. Stand firm. Do not allow a false image of normalcy to be made of our wounded homeland. As long as our people are being killed, our sisters and brothers are sentenced to execution, and our mothers and fathers, spouses and children are in mourning; as long as this dark night has not come to an end, and Iran has not been freed from the grip of this occupying regime, nothing is normal and our struggle will not end.

Know that the future belongs to you — to you who chose not remain silent, who rose and stood firm. Together, we will reclaim Iran and rebuild it once again.

Long live Iran!
Victory to the Lion and Sun Revolution of the Iranian nation!

Russia has opened a criminal case against me for “aiding terrorism.”

Each day, the authorities fabricate new pretexts to restrict Russians’ access to Telegram as they seek to suppress the right to privacy and free speech.

A sad spectacle of a state afraid of its own people.

We are ready to reach an agreement as soon as possible. We will do whatever is necessary to make this happen.

A U.S. attack on Iran would be a real gamble.

Everyone should know that starting a war may be possible, but ending it is not easy.

Hello. The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) can hear your voice and wants to help you.

The year 2027 is very important for us, and I hope it is achievable.

So that Putin cannot block our membership for decades.

Let me spell out three ways our support will be maintained and reinforced.

The first is the European Union loan of 90 billion euros. We call it the "steel porcupine loan," because it should give Ukraine the strength of a steel porcupine, indigestible for potential invaders.

As the President of the Council has also said, this loan was agreed by the 27 heads of state and government in the European Council. They have given their word, and that word cannot be broken. So we will deliver on this loan one way or another.

Let me be very clear: we have different options, and we will use them.

Now, let’s look at the loan itself. The first priority of the “porcupine loan” is to address your most urgent defense needs.

It will help procure, produce, develop, and secure advanced defense equipment for the brave Ukrainian forces—from drones to missiles to ammunition. The work has already started.

Together with the Ukrainian forces, we have identified a first package—a priority package. Our aim is to deliver it before Easter. It includes drones and ammunition.

We will soon get our 20th sanctions package on Russia over the line.

Our sanctions will keep draining Russia's revenues and weakening its war machine.

Dear Volodymyr,

This morning we honoured your fallen at the People's Memorial in Maidan Square. And today, I am also thinking of their comrades bravely holding the line in the trenches.

They fight for peace. They fight for a better future for their children. They fight for the simple dream of a free and sovereign Ukraine at the heart of a free Europe.

So let me conclude by saying to them: Europe will stand by you and stand with you until you have made that dream come true.

Long live Europe, and Slava Ukraini.

Ukraine is on a good way to become a member of the European Union. You all know that this is a merit-based process.

I must say Ukraine is outstanding in the speed of which it fulfills the necessary reforms. These are tough reforms, not easy reforms. And it is deeply impressive to see the enormous progress Ukraine is making despite fighting a war for their survival.

I understand very well that for you (Zelensky), a clear date is also important. The date you set (2027) is your benchmark that you want to match.

You know that from our side, dates by themselves are not possible. But of course, the support that you can reach your goal is absolutely clear on our side.

We are ready to reach an agreement as soon as possible.

If there is political will on all sides, the deal can be reached as soon as possible.

We will enter the negotiating room in Geneva with all sincerity and with goodwill. We hope that that goodwill and that good approach will be reciprocated by the Americans.

If there is a political will on all sides, I believe the deal can be reached as soon as possible.

You cannot contain a war once it is started.

How can one end a war with just one strike? That is a real gamble in our judgment. We hope that that will not be the case.

Everybody should be aware that a war can be started — but ending it is not easy.

The whole region will suffer as a result of an aggression against Iran.

If the U.S. attacks Iran, how can anybody expect Iran to be silent? We have to respond to U.S. assets in the region.

Our definite preference is to go along the line of peace. That is why the next Geneva meeting is very important. Why should we waste our time on something that will be detrimental to the whole region and to everybody?

Therefore, instead of war mongering, instead of sending troops, sending armada to our region, it is better to concentrate on diplomacy.

What is the purpose of sending troops, sending armada to our region?

Does it mean that they wanted to intimidate Iran? That is not going to happen. Iranians have proved to be resilient.

Therefore, it is better to concentrate on the real job, and that is diplomacy.
