A video believed to be the final speech of Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, is rapidly spreading across social media, drawing global attention. In the speech, he uses strong rhetoric, describing the United States as a “declining empire” and emphasizing that Iran will not yield to pressure from the West.

The message reflects Tehran’s long-standing stance, which has consistently criticized U.S. policies and called for maintaining a “spirit of resistance.” Khamenei had repeatedly stated that Iran would not negotiate under pressure and warned of what he described as the weakening of American global influence.

The circulation of this speech comes at a time of heightened tensions in the Middle East, amplifying its impact. Many observers see it not only as a political statement, but also as a symbolic message amid growing concerns about regional instability.

The authenticity and exact timing of the video have not been fully confirmed, but it continues to spark widespread debate across online platforms.
