“Your victory revived the hopes of the Iranians and the regional peoples for the future and the ability to face challenges as well as difficulties and overcome them through your revolutionary presidency and sincere efforts under the leadership as well as wise and inspiring guidance of Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei,” Nasrallah said.

“Mr. President, you have always been assisting the oppressed, the tortured and the vulnerable and supporting the resistance fighters as well as the axis of resistance throughout all your stages in office and struggle,” Nasrallah added.

“The resistance and the free people look up to you and see you like a fortress and a strong support to them through your confrontation and resistance against the aggressors.”

Finally, Sayyed Nasrallah expressed his hopes that Holy God protects President-elect Raisi, helps his eminence to assume the heavy responsibility, and enables him to gain victory and reach all aspirations.

Raisi was announced on Saturday as the winner of the June 18 presidential election in Iran, scoring 17,926,345 votes. Raisi obtained 17,926,345 votes out of the total 28,933,004 ballots, being elected as the President of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Shortly after the early results were out, Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khamenei urged the president-elect and those elected as village and city councilors in Friday’s nationwide elections to take the chance to serve the Iranian nation.

In a message, published as the results of Friday elections were out, Ayatollah Khamenei also hailed the massive turnout of people. (ILKHA)
