IRNA � Iran's Defense Minister Brigadier General Amir Hatami said on Tuesday that one of the main goals of the enemies is to create discord among Iranian officials.

Hatami made the remarks during a meeting with the representative of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei in the northwestern Iranian city of Tabriz Hojjatoleslam Mohhammad-Ali Al-e Hashem.

Noting that in the light of the guidelines of the Supreme Leader and the insight of the Iranian people, Iran has reached a point in terms of power that is growing day after another, the minister said that the enemies cannot tolerate Iran's growth.

The enemies aim to underestimate Iran's different achievements and therefore try to show the Islamic system as an inefficient system of governance, Hatami said.
