AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Speaker of the Islamic Consultative Assembly (Parliament) of the Islamic Republic of Iran Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf has warned that any kind of stance, which hurts unity, will be considered as loading the enemy’s gun.
Qalibaf made the remarks in a Wednesday session of parliament, calling for preserving unity among the Iranian nation.
He emphasized that unity has been of great importance when it comes to ethnic and religious issues, adding that the symbol of unity in this parliament is that there are representatives of all religions and ethnicities in the assembly.
Unity has been the basis of the victory of the Islamic Revolution and the continuation of the Islamic Republic in Iran as well as enhancement of anti-Arrogance spirit, he noted.
As to the southeastern province of Sistan and Baluchestan, he said that a look into the history of the province shows that the Baluch people have always defended Iran and its independence and that they have been at the forefront of fighting colonialism and global arrogance.
The speaker went on to say that the enemy seeks to disintegrate Iran; thus, we should preserve the unity in the country and the anti-Islamic Revolution foes in particular the United States and the Zionist regime are attempting to react to revolutionary movements, so we should protect unity to be able to stand against them.
Mohammad Taghi Naghdali, a lawmaker, said on Wednesday that some figures are talking about a referendum, while the religious system has provided the highest sort of referendum of itself because the religious establishment is the only government, which has asked people of its governance.
Those, who claim that there is no freedom in the country, should be answered that if there was no freedom, you could not have a tribune to say whatever you want every week, Naghdali argued.
The massive march by Iranians from all walks of life to mark the National Day of Fighting against Global Arrogance was a wakeup call for figures to stop sowing discord, the legislator warned.
