Iranians from different walks of life have marked the 43rd anniversary of the victory of the Islamic Revolution. Millions of Iranians were out on motorcycles, cars and bicycles in the streets and squares all over the country, due to coronavirus pandemic, waving flags of Iran and banners in support of their country.

Speaking on the 43rd anniversary of the Islamic revolution Iran’s President Ebrahim Raeisi said the country’s foreign policy relies on balance, and progress hinges on unity and convergence and Iran does not pin hope on the West.

In a statement at the end of the events, the demonstrators underlined the necessity of preserving national unity and avoiding any measure that would foment division and sedition in the country.

Analysts believe that after 43 years since the victory of the Islamic Revolution and despite different forms of conspiracies against the Islamic establishment Iran has now been turned into a beacon of hope for freedom-seeking and the oppressed nation of the world.
