Sayed Hassan Nasrallah, the Secretary General of Hezbollah, congratulated the leadership and the nation of Iran for the significant election and high turnout.
“I want to congratulate Imam Khamenei and the Iranian nation for this festival of democracy, because this democracy strengthens the right positions in the region,” he said.
“In this democracy, the Guardian Jurist [vali faqih or Ayatollah Khamenei] with all his powers has only one vote and other Iranian citizens of different ethnicities are also at the same level and participate in the election for [making] the future of their country.”
Nasrallah referred to lack of democracy in Arab countries in the region. “I hope we witness similar democracy in some Arab countries too.”
