TEHRAN (FNA)- Monitoring enemy's soft threats is among the most crucial
responsibilities of the cultural officials, an Islamic Revolution Guards
Corps (IRGC) General said on Wednesday.

"The propagation officials should prevent or fight these threats," Deputy
Representative of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution to IRGC
General Mohammad Ali Asoudi said.

Asoudi described propagation as the most comprehensive field of activity of
his department and the main pillar for the growth and promotion of any
organization.

He also urged cultural directors and propagation officials to fulfill their
responsibilities with utmost vigilance.

Earlier, the IRGC Commander Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari called for
comprehensive efforts in all the cultural, economic, political and social
grounds to confront the soft threats posed against the Islamic Republic.

"IRGC's strategy for confrontation with soft threats comprises preventative
measures, full intelligence information on the type of a given threat and
the time of its occurrence and plans for preventing its occurrence and
formation," Jafari noted.

"Confronting soft threats in all the cultural, economic, political and
social arenas is the most important need of the (Islamic) ruling system,"
the commander added.
