The leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Sayyed Ali Khamenei, met with a group of commanders and officials in the Iranian Navy where he touched on naval economic policies, new capabilities in the naval force, and economic policies in place to vitalize hope in the Iranian society.

Sayyed Khamenei termed the progress of the navy since the beginning of the Islamic Revolution as "impressive" and "unbelievable" on the day that marks the National Day of the Navy in Iran's calendar.

In the first years of the victory of the Islamic Revolution, the presence of the army navy beyond territorial waters was unimaginable, but now the army navy travels 360 degrees around the world with strength and returns to the country with pride, the leader said, referring to the 360-degree mission of Iran navy.

The two key policies of Iran's naval forces, according to Sayyed Khamenei, are extending influence in the sea and relying on technology.

During the conference, Rear Admiral Shahram Irani, Commander of the Iranian Navy, provided a report on the Iranian Navy's capabilities and actions. He also expressed gratitude and appreciation for the leader's announcement of the sea-based development policies, highlighting the Navy's eagerness to implement them.

The Commander noted that Iran's influence in the sea was increasing due to its capabilities.
