Iran Press/Iran news: Speaking at the mausoleum of the late founder of the Islamic Republic, Imam Khomeini (may his soul rest in peace) on Wednesday morning, president Rouhani emphasized that no one in the world thought that the Iranian people, with their bare hands, would bring down the armed-to-the-teeth Pahlavi regime which was being supported by a superpower.
President Rouhani added: "It is hard to find in the world a revolution more popular and more supported by ordinary people than the Islamic revolution of Iran. As long as the Iranian people believe in the two fundamental principles of an Islamic government, and the concept of a republic, then the Islamic Republic of Iran will proudly stand on the world stage."
Stating that, “People believed in Imam Khomeini’s honesty,” the President continued, “One of Imam Khomeini’s skills was that he proved that building a correct, fair system had a great value.”
“Imam Khomeini believed that tyranny was the biggest wrong to be forbidden,” continued President of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
He also went on to say, “Imam Khomeini interpreted the aspects of the religion that were less known to people.”
The President continued, “He aroused hope of a better future, an independent country and the ruling of people and Islamic rules.”
“The hope Imam Khomeini brought to people mobilized the Iranian society, something that is unprecedented in the history,” said Rouhani.
He added, “He proved that ‘enjoining the good and forbidding the bad’ could also include domestic tyranny and foreign colonialism.”
Rouhani continued, “Imam Khomeini was not afraid of foreign powers, but concerned about domestic division”.
Stressing that it was Imam Khomeini who introduced the Islamic Republic system, he said, “Our system will be in danger if people have doubts about the two principles of Islam and Republic.”
The President also said, “Nobody can harm us as long as we follow the Supreme Leader.”
The President continued, “The US Administration will definitely fail in its latest move against the Iranian nation.”
“Today, the entire world is condemning the US conspiracies against the Iranian nation and support Iran in this regard,” he continued.
He also went on to state that the United States did not just break its promise to Iran, adding, “The US has showed the same lack of commitment to Europe, China and international treaties and regulations.”
“Most of our problems are because of the pressure from the side of the United States and its followers,” he said, adding that it is not right for some people to blame their system and government for this.
He continued, “The highest honor for us in the recent years is our negotiations with the world powers and clinching moral, legal and political victory over them.”
“The biggest economic pressure in the past 40 years on the Iranian nation has been plotted,” he said, adding that, “If we all stand together, we will be victorious in this stage as well”.
At the end of his speech, Rouhani also went on to congratulate the 40th anniversary of the victory of the Islamic Revolution to the people, authorities and Imam Khomeini’s family and grandson. 101/ 211 /202
