As the National Teachers' Day approaches, a group of teachers and education officials from across the country met with Leader of Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Wednesday.
During the meeting, the Leader said by implementing the UNESCO 2030 agenda in Muslim countries, they seek to raise soldiers and footmen for the US and the UK.
The UN-devised global education agenda, dubbed as the Education 2030 agenda, charts out development goals for world nations.
In May 2017, Leader of the Islamic Revolution said the document had been prepared under the influence of world powers. That was followed by an announcement by Iran's Foreign Ministry that the country would never accept any UN document that even minutely went against the country’s beliefs and religious values.
Ayatollah Khamenei slammed the UN 2030 Agenda for nations’ educational system for imposing a Western system and went on to say, "this is where the importance of the 2030 Agenda is revealed. The essence of this agenda is that our educational system would teach children a lifestyle and philosophy of life-based on Western principles. This means that you, the teachers would train soldiers and footmen for the West in your classrooms."
The Leader described the 2030 agenda for the education system as a means of foisting Western intellectual strategies on nations that implement it, adding "they are working on this 2030 Agenda so much because the instructions and advice for the educational system it implies are meant to adjust students’ system of thoughts in a way that the principles of their life would be built upon Western thoughts."
Ayatollah Khamenei further described the 2030 agenda’s goal to train soldiers for the West; "it implies that you would train soldiers for Britain, the US and the rest of the well-dressed, perfumed savages: the ones who murder and assist the murderers without giving a care. They say, 'we help the Saudis because we need their money!' Now they want us to raise soldiers and footmen for them in Islamic countries. This is what the 2030 agenda is about."
