What is your opinion about the personality of Martyr Lieutenant General Qasem Soleimani? If we ask you to describe Martyr Soleimani in one sentence, what would you say?

We have heard about Martyr Qasem Soleimani. We were deeply saddened to hear of his martyrdom. But there are thousands of General Soleimani in Iran.

We will not forget Soleimani's memory and thought until the Day of Judgment.

God Almighty knows everything, and we, as Muslims, try to arrange our affairs according to the will of God. We will meet Martyr Soleimani on the Day of Judgment, God willing.

There are thousands of General Soleimani in Iran

How do you assess the situation in Afghanistan?

I've traveled to Afghanistan three times during the war. The Afghan people live in a very difficult situation.

I hope that the situation of Afghan people, especially the situation of refugees, will be improved. And We try to help them.

Today, many Afghan immigrants enter Iran, and I think there are about four million Afghans living in the Islamic Republic of Iran.
