At the conference of Cultural Messengers of the Revolution, which was held with the participation of a number of selected students from Khorasan Razavi international domain, Reza Saeedi said that if a movement or a transformation lacks cultural infrastructures, it will not achieve the desired outcome, and continued, "The difference between the Islamic Revolution of Iran with other movements is based on Islam and justice, and, relying on this, it has been able to stand for 40 years against all opponents."
"The Islamic awakening or "Arab Spring" is the name of a series of uprisings that took place in various Arab countries, and it is clear that this movement did not achieve its goals due to lack of a unanoumus management and cultural infrastructures", he added.
Noting that many believe that the Islamic Republic of Iran is trying to export the Islamic revolution through military intervention to other countries, Saeedi emphasized, "The fact is that the issuance of a revolution is the issuance of culture and civilization, and if we strengthen our cultural infrastructure, We will definitely issue the message of the Islamic Revolution without any military action."

International University said, "We are trying to work on connecting with Muslim countries in order to admit more students and professors.
