Shiraz, Dec 30, IRNA – Today Iran has presented a successful pattern for development without reliance on the United States and while opposing Washington’s policies to world nation, a Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) member said here Tuesday.
The former top Iranian nuclear negotiator referred to the 2008 presidential election as an era in which the Islamic system could have been presented to the world nations as a top model of democracy.
“Under those conditions some people resorted to various pretests, such as election fraud, accusing the system of torture, etc. which was doing great injustice against the sacred Islamic system,” said Jalili.
On house arrest of two of the candidates in those elections, Mir Hossein Mousavi and Mahdi Karroubi, Jalili said that the December 30th people’s upraising was the trial court of those heads of sedition in the streets and showed that the people’s votes are respected in this Islamic system and no one is allowed to doubt this fact.
