In a televised address on Wednesday, Ahmadinejad said public awakening and the desire for justice are spreading across the globe, as the Iranian nation becomes more dignified day by day.
The Iranian president expressed hope that the Persian New Year will be a happy and prosperous year for the Iranian nation, as well as other Persian-speaking people across the region.
Ahmadinejad also touched on some breakthroughs the Iranian people have made during the last year, such as sending live animals into space, expressing hope that the accelerating trend of construction and development will continue in the new year.
Earlier on Wednesday, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution Imam Khamenei felicitated Iranians on the arrival of Nowruz, and designated the new Persian year as the “The Year of Political and Economic Epic.”
The Supreme Leader said enemies of Iran have failed to isolate the Islamic Republic despite their strenuous efforts to do so.
Imam Khamenei also called on people to turn out massively in the forthcoming presidential election in June to determine a “good future” for their country.
