Iran Majlis resonates with ‘Down with America’ slogan

Vice Speaker of Iran’s Majlis Mohammad Hossein Aboutorabifard, who also thanks the lawmakers chanting the ‘Down with America’ slogan at the end of his address to parliament said Iranian nation will proudly continue with this slogan.

According to Tasnim news agency, in his address before the open session of parliament on Sunday, the vice speaker referred to the November 4 anniversary of the seizure of US embassy in Tehran as a symbol of “resistance of righteousness against falsehood” in the history.
The top lawmaker called on the Iranian statesmen and parliamentarians to properly indentify challenges facing the country and pave the ground for Iran to emerge as a major economic powerhouse.
He added “Just as Iran has turned into a political power, it must also turn into an economic power so that the hegemonic system (a term used to refer to the West in general and the US in particular) will be incapable of taking advantage of sanctions as a means against Iran,”.
The Iranian MPs also chanted ‘Down with America’ after the vice speaker’s address, which was once again praised by Aboutorabifard, who encouraged them to remain resolute in their campaign against the global arrogance.
