In his speech at the event, the president urged for transferring the knowledge and culture of martyrdom and sacrifice to the young generation to foil the enemy's plots to deceive the young generation. 

Raeisi pointed to the recent riots in the country fomented by the enemies of the revolution after the announcement of the death of a young Iranian lady, saying that "While the issue of MS Amini's death is being fully and accurately followed up on in Iran and all officials have emphasized to pursue the matter, the enemy is trying to deflect public opinion in an extensive media warfare."
