The rise of the Islamic Revolution of Iran marked a new chapter in freedom, political participation and democracy in the history of our country.
The Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Iran, as a national pact, in principle, considers all sovereign institutions as the product of the will and vote of the people.
Now, on the 14th of Mordad 1400, the will of the nation has been manifested once again so that this servant can swear allegiance to the lofty ideals that were fulfilled 43 years ago by the Iranian people under the leadership of Imam Khomeini, may God have mercy on him.
The people are determined to follow the enlightened path of the revolution. Their will is to put the country on the path of justice, progress, freedom and dignity.
The destiny of Greater Iran was changed by the efforts of the historian ummah and under the leadership of the God-fearing Imam, and the Iranian nation, through the Islamic Revolution, broke the chain of captivity of the oppressors and ruled over its own destiny. He stood up against the East and the West to prove that religious democracy is a new way of governing that can bring "independence and freedom," "religion and the world," and "tradition and progress" together.
Greater Iran, a proud Iran and a historic Iran, is entering a new century in which the sun of religious democracy has risen for more than forty years and is now at the beginning of the second step in the period of excellence and completion of its movement.
The new government today stands on the heights that a world civilization with several thousand years of history has built. A culture that has been at the forefront of human history for centuries and, by combining monotheism and progress, has provided a model of spiritual life. The culture and civilization of Greater Iran, when it embraced Islam, recreated this pattern of progress and became the forerunner of world knowledge and literature.
The great nation of Iran now stands on top of this high peak and, pleased with its historic choices, looks to the promising prospects for its country; New Iran, the 15th-century Iran.
Dear ladies and gentlemen;
At the beginning of the new century and the beginning of the second step of the revolution, I am very proud that today I am obliged by the vote of the heroic nation of Iran and by them to protect such a precious heritage, and I thank God Almighty for bestowing blessings on this servant and the great opportunity that gave me the service of the people.
The will of the great nation of Iran, while creating this great epic and revealing manifestations of the religious democracy in contemporary history, to the world at the height of the hostility of the Iranian people from cowardly economic sanctions to widespread psychological warfare and difficulties caused by the widespread outbreak of Corona.
But we know that elections are the beginning, not the end, of popular participation; And the people's government will seek to fulfill the will of the people and their message in this election. The message of the Iranian people in the epic of 28 June 1400 was the message of change and justice. The will of the people was independence and resistance to the extravagance of some arrogant and oppressive powers, while constructive and extensive interaction with the whole world.
The people today are asking us to live up to our promise of a more just, anti-corruption, anti-corruption, anti-discrimination, anti-apartheid, pro-science, and pro-government government.
The people want their elected government to stand up for human rights in the world and not be satisfied with oppression, injustice and discrimination anywhere in the world.
We are true defenders of human rights, and we do not accept silence in the face of oppression and crime and the violation of the rights of innocent and defenseless human beings. Oppression and crime, whether in the heart of Europe and America, or in Africa, or in Yemen, Syria and Palestine, we will stand by the oppressed, and inside, the people and youth of this border and region ask us to be the voice of the oppressed and the guardians of the revolution.
People want their social and cultural freedoms to be pursued diligently.
The people want the Islamic Revolution to be realized in the true sense of the word, and all the features and characteristics of the Islamic Revolution to be visible in the structures, processes, as well as the beliefs of the rulers.
People want us to improve their livelihoods and livelihoods by eliminating bottlenecks, and to spread national vitality and social enthusiasm in society.
The government, based on the will of the nation, will stand for the interests of the people and the administration of justice, and it will move tirelessly in this direction.
Today, I am a servant of all the republics and servants of more than 80 million Iranians. The people of Iran are the ones who have repeatedly proved their loyalty to the revolution in various fields, and today it is our turn to lend.
The people's government is the government of national unity. In a people's government, political factions, ethnic, religious, and sectarian divisions fade, and all peoples unite hand in hand to achieve a strong Iran under the sacred banner of the Islamic Republic.
Today, I call on all the elites and different strata of the people, all ethnicities and religions, parties and groups and political currents, seminaries and universities, young and old, men and women, to consider the people's government as their government.
Let us stand hand in hand with national unity and solidarity for the promotion of dear Islam, for the honor of our future and for the pride of our dear Iran in the world, and to realize the ideal of a strong Iran.
The promises of the people's government are true promises. We consider ourselves committed to the ideals of the Islamic Revolution.
Creating maximum transparency in the economy, drying up the roots of corruption and rent-seeking, making the economy resilient to shocks, curbing inflation and inflation, strengthening the national currency and restoring stability to the country's economy, supporting national production and striving for self-sufficiency in meeting basic needs, technological progress And we will pursue knowledge-based, optimal management of the country's mines, water, gas and oil resources, attention to climate change and environmental protection. By the grace of God, we hope and see a bright future in the dignity of the Iranian nation and a stronger Iran than before.
The people's government will be the government of managers who are committed to the interests of the people, and their main concern is to mobilize the obvious and hidden capabilities of the nation, especially the youth, to bring them to the field of work and constructive efforts.
But it requires transformation, critique and respect for elites and experts. I call on the dear people to act as reformers of the government and to make their servants benefit from their suggestions and criticisms.
We need the "presence of the people on the scene" and the "empathy and cooperation of the three forces, the institutions of the Islamic Revolution and the armed forces." Given the current special circumstances, the government, the parliament and the judiciary must cooperate and interact with each other more than before, and they must not miss any opportunity to serve the people.
I believe that the success of the Iranian nation, beyond the careful planning and tireless efforts of any force or institution, requires national cooperation and collective wisdom, which will be manifested in the government's interaction with other forces as well as close interaction with elites and intellectuals.
In this historic meeting, in the presence of the people's representatives and in the presence of foreign guests, I would like to mention the approach of the people's government in the field of foreign policy:
In a people's government, all components of the country's national power will be strengthened; and we will use all the tools of national power, including diplomacy and intelligent interaction with the world, to secure the national interests of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
The power of the Islamic Republic of Iran in the region is security-building. Iran's regional capabilities support peace and stability in the countries and are used only to counter the threat of domineering and oppressive powers.
Regional crises must be resolved through genuine "intra-regional" dialogue based on the rights of nations.
I extend my hand of friendship and brotherhood to all the countries of the region, especially the neighbors.
The nuclear program of the Islamic Republic is completely peaceful; The regime of the Islamic Republic of Iran legally prohibits nuclear weapons, and these weapons have no place in the country's defense strategy.
The policy of pressure and sanctions will not prevent the Iranian nation from pursuing its legal rights, including the right to development.
Sanctions against the Iranian people must be lifted, and we support any "diplomatic plan" that achieves this goal.
The Islamic Republic of Iran considers neighboring countries and nations as its relatives and considers the most important and main priority of its foreign policy to be the promotion of relations with its neighboring countries and wants their dignity and promotion.
Diplomacy should strengthen the ties of the nations of the region and strengthen their commonalities in the fields of economics, culture, science and sports.
The world is changing, and the pursuit of the interests of nations depends on understanding of the new world and "strategic interaction" with "emerging powers," and a successful foreign policy is a balanced foreign policy.
In the end, I would like to thank all the esteemed guests, especially the esteemed family of the martyrs and the high officials of the country and the army, and the esteemed foreign guests who came to this ceremony and accepted the effort. I need to sincerely appreciate the efforts of the esteemed Speaker of the Parliament, Dr. Qalibaf, and his colleagues and dear representatives of the nation in hosting this historic ceremony.
I ask God to provide me and the new government with the opportunity to effectively serve the honorable people of Iran, so that we can rely on divine help and the good prayers of Hazrat Vali Asr Ajal Allah Farjah Al-Sharif, a bright future for dear Islamic Iran and the good people of this land. Let's figure out.
