The Iranian nation is determined to protect its independence, dignity and the right to its destiny

According to RCO News Agency, the spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Esmail Baqaei, wrote in a message on X channel on the occasion of the 13th of Aban:

“The 13th of Aban is a reminder of three fateful events in the contemporary history of Iran: the exile of Imam Khomeini (RA) in 1343 following the protest against the capitulation, the martyrdom of protesting students in 1357 in protest against the authoritarian regime, and the 13th of Aban 1358, which was a symbol of the Iranian nation’s protest against decades of foreign intervention.”

He added: In the passage of these three decades, a clear message was repeated: the Iranian nation is determined to protect its independence, dignity and the right to its destiny.

Baqa’i pointed out: Today, in a world where hegemony and self-righteousness are reproduced in the form of military aggression, covenant-breaking, embargo, economic pressure, and technology monopoly, the meaning of fighting arrogance is in the powerful resistance against imposition, insisting on justice, intellectual independence, and scientific and indigenous progress.

In the end, the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said: May the memory and path of all those who stood for the independence, dignity and freedom of Iran be honored.
