In his remarks, Khamenei said, “Contrary to some viewpoints, employment is not one of the main problems of women.”
With regards to women’s college education, he said, “If there are any differences in the fields of study, it is not against justice because jobs and studies that are not compatible with women’s nature should not be imposed on them.”
Noting the international organizations defending women’s rights, he criticized the infrastructure of some world conventions and pointed out, “The insistence by the West on this wrong infrastructure will destroy humanity. For this reason, one should stay away from these foundations to acquire a proper and balanced outlook.”
