IRNA � US Government as the symbol of arrogance and colonialism has become more isolated than ever, Chief of Staff of the President of Iran said.


'The 13th of Aban is a historic and important event from different angles, first it coincided with the exile of Imam khomeini, the late father of the 1979 Islamic Revolution in Iran, second National Student Day and third the Day of Struggling against World Arrogance,' Mahmoud Vaezi said Saturday in an Instagram post.

'Today, the ideology of fighting arrogance has become common place in the world from the very eastern parts of Asia to Middle East, Africa and South America,' he added.

'Not only the US but no country will be able to consider itself as a supreme power,' Vaezi noted.

The 13th of Aban has been named in Iran as the Student Day and the Day of Struggling against World Arrogance. On 13th of Aban 1358 ( Nov 4, 1979) Iranian students took over the US embassy in Tehran. On the same day previous year, a group of Iranian high school and university students were killed by the security forces while protesting against the deposed Shah of Iran.

During the nationwide 13th Aban rallies, the Iranian people show hatred towards the global hegemonic powers and renew allegiance to the Islamic principles set by Imam khomeini, the late father of the 1979 Islamic Revolution in Iran.
