Leader: This year marks important year

“This year marks an important year for the country both because of the country’s need to a major economic vibrancy … and of the imminent presidential and rural and city councils’ elections, which are in turn of high importance,” said the Supreme Leader in an address to large groups of pilgrims to the holy Shrine of Imam Reza (AS), the 8th Imam of Prophet Mohammad’s (Peace Be upon Him and His Progeny) infallible household, on the occasion of the start of the new Iranian year.
Recalling Iranian nation’s success in the last Iranian calendar year of 1395, the Supreme Leader said despite economic problems, the nation managed to shine well in two lines: Firstly, adherence to the revolutionary issues and values and to the Islamic establishment and secondly, loyalty to the religious and divine values.
