Vahidi made the remarks in a Tuesday ceremony of appreciating both former and new governors-general of Tehran Province, saying that one of the reasons behind the recent unrest is that the enemies do not want to allow the people of Iran to be able to be informed of the big jobs done in different sectors of the Islamic country.
Referring to separation between people and the Islamic System as another goal of the foes in triggering the riots, he noted that the million-man participation of the Iranians in the rallies of the National Day of Fighting Global Arrogance in Iran, as well as commemoration of security martyrs in different cities, indicate that realities on the ground are different from the propaganda campaign.
He also pointed to the fact that some Iranians have been offended by the sacrilege of the Holy Quran and the national flag of the country, adding that the Iranian people are heartbroken by watching the scenes of attacks on the Iranian youths.
The head of Iran’s security council further underlined that the enemy is trying to implement the last phase of its plots, but the people are standing firm and resilient in the scene, and the government is at the people’s service.
Vahidi appreciated efforts made by the outgoing governor-general of Tehran, thanking God for the fact that representatives of the Islamic Revolution have proven their capabilities in the administration of President Ebrahim Raisi.
In the Tuesday ceremony, Mohsen Mansouri was replaced with Alireza Fakhari as Tehran governor-general.
