Iran protecting people of region against ISIL

Addressing the crowds of people in Sanandaj in Iran’s Western Province of Kurdistan, President Hassan Rouhani reiterated that Iran is in full support of the oppressed people of the region, the same way it defends its own people.

Rouhani hailed the 72% vote he gained in the province in 2013 presidential election and called the people of Kurdistan in favor of moderation and democracy.

Rouhani paid homage to the support he garnered in Kurdistan and expressed grim determination for speeding developmental projects in the province.

The head of Iran’s executive branch promised serious follow-up of issues related to Kurdistan as "the government and Kurdistan have close ties and the Kurds demonstrated the depth of ties with warm welcoming presidential delegation visiting the province."

"Today we enjoy the victory of all Iranians after 12 years insisting on reason and dialogue despite the threats and pressure imposed by world powers," Rouhani stressed adding that the nation boasted its superiority in the field of logic and negotiation winning a historic ground in fight with six world powers thanks to the efforts made by Iranian well-experienced diplomats.

"Who could believe seeing a day in which those insisting on dismantling Iran’s nuclear cycle, surrender to Iranians’ will to have the peaceful nuclear program," Rouhaniasked rhetorically.

Iranian president udnerscored resistance of the nation in facing unjust sanctions and highlighted Americans' confess about impossibility of bringing Iran to its knees.

Referring to US Secretary of State remarks in Congress hearing session, Rouhani argued that Kerry's advise to senators not to threaten Iran meant “Iran has been the winner since square one.”

Moreover, Hassan Rouhani hailed unity among Shia and Sunni population in the province and deemed the two sects as equal and brothers.

The President also reaffirmed Iran's position in removing Takfiri terrorists from the region; “we will do it by unity and solidarity and we will defend the region not just within our borders but also out there in Baghdad, Sulaymanieh, Erbil and Dahwal.”
