"The vote, cast in a free atmosphere and with all inclinations and parties at present, was after all ..." — Ali Khamenei

The winner of the elections which saw the participation of almsot 30 million people was the Iranian nation and the losers were those who tried to keep people away from the polls.

Perhaps, when we examine the causes of many social changes and political upheavals, we will find the marks of its presence and its principal ideals.

The honor of about 30 million votes remains with the Iranian nation and no enemy scheme would take away this dignity and honor from the Iranian nation.

The idea of human rights as a fundamental principle can be seen to underlie throughout Islamic teachings.
