Iran Press/Iran News: Iranian President Hassan Rouhani and the members of the cabinet attended the allegiance ceremony to the late founder of the Islamic Revolution in Imam Khomeini Mausoleum, to renew allegiance to his and the martyrs’ ideals, celebrating the 41st anniversary of the victory of the Islamic Revolution.
Speaking at the ceremony of renewing allegiance to Imam Khomeini on Sunday, Rouhani said anyone who prevents people from voting and does not allow people of different tastes to choose what they want, and anyone who discourages people from participating in the elections is certainly far from the Imam's guideline.
Rouhani noted that Imam Khomeini had known that justice and a better society was not possible without people's presence.
Rouhani further explained that the late founder of the Islamic Revolution has taught governmental officials that with the support of people we can sustain Islamic democracy, and fight the superpowers.
He underlined that the democracy of Imam does not end with just one scene and one election, adding, "We must always respect people's opinion in our economic, cultural, domestic and foreign policies."
At the ceremony, Custodian of the Mausoleum of Imam Khomeini (RA) Seyyed Hassan Khomeini, Hassan Rouhani, vice-presidents, and ministers were present and paid tribute to the late Imam Khomeini and late Ayatollah Hashemi Rafsanjani by laying down a wreath on their graves and praying for them.
