President.ir - President congratulated the 40th anniversary of the victory of the Islamic Revolution and said, �Trusting people was the Late Imam Khomeini�s highest skill�.

Speaking at the ceremony of renewing allegiance to Imam Khomeini and martyrs� ideals on Wednesday, President Hassan Rouhani said, �Imam Khomeini is the greatest reviver of religion in our times and the architect of a revolution that achieved victory by relying merely on people�.

Stating that, �People believed in Imam Khomeini�s honesty,� the President continued, �One of Imam Khomeini�s skills was that he proved that building a correct, fair system had a great value�.

�Imam Khomeini believed that tyranny was the biggest wrong to be forbidden,� continued President of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

He also went on to say, �Imam Khomeini interpreted the aspects of the religion that were less known to people�.

The President continued, �He aroused hope of a better future, an independent country and the ruling of people and Islamic rules�.

�The hope Imam Khomeini brought to people mobilised the Iranian society, something that is unprecedented in the history,� said Rouhani.

He added, �He proved that �enjoining the good and forbidding the bad� could also include domestic tyranny and foreign colonialism�.

Dr Rouhani continued, �Imam Khomeini was not afraid of foreign powers, but concerned about domestic division�.

Stressing that it was Imam Khomeini who introduced the Islamic Republic system, he said, �Our system will be in danger if people have doubts about the two principles of Islam and Republic�.

The President also said, �Nobody can harm us as long as we follow the Supreme Leader�.

The President continued, �The US Administration will definitely fail in its latest move against the Iranian nation�.

�Today, the entire world is condemning the US conspiracies against the Iranian nation and support Iran in this regard,� he continued.

He also went on to state that the United States did not just break its promise to Iran, adding, �The US has showed the same lack of commitment to Europe, China and international treaties and regulations�.

�Most of our problems are because of the pressure from the side of the United States and its followers,� he said, adding that it is not right for some people to blame their system and government for this.

He continued, �The highest honour for us in the recent years is our negotiations with the world powers and clinching moral, legal and political victory over them�.

�The biggest economic pressure in the past 40 years on the Iranian nation has been plotted,� he said, adding that, �If we all stand together, we will be victorious in this stage as well�.

At the end of his speech, Dr Rouhani also went on to congratulate the 40th anniversary of the victory of the Islamic Revolution to the people, authorities and Imam Khomeini�s family and grandson.
