Iran Press/ Iran news: Imam Khomeini, the great founder of the Islamic Revolution of Iran on 1 February 1979, after 15 years in exile, returned to Iran from France. His arrival led to the final overthrow of the Shah of Iran, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, on 11 February 1979.
Speaking at the beginning of his weekly presser on Monday morning the spokesman of Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs Nasser Kanaani says: "The Islamic Revolution emerged victorious only by the will of the people and without any foreign intervention and showed that the equations of the world can develop and win not by the superpowers, but by the will of the nations."
Kanaani further stated: "For several decades, the discourse of the Islamic revolution has become a dominant one in the region, with its message being reached the ears of the world, and the nations, influenced by the message of Late Imam Khomeini and (Iran's) model of religious democracy and identity, are trying to gain their political independence while countering the power and the arrogance to protect their national and human identity from hegemonic powers' aggression."
Now the Islamic Republic of Iran has emerged more powerful than ever and the conspirators have failed to bring the country into crisis through foreign movements added he.
