Nowruz Message and the Beginning of the Year 2584/1404

My dear compatriots, I wish you all a happy Nowruz and New Year. The ancient Nowruz symbolizes national unity, the perseverance and resistance of Iranian culture against invaders; heralding a new beginning for the Iranian nation, and a long era of freedom, prosperity, and progress after the Islamic Republic. This year, as the Islamic regime's efforts to diminish the significance of this ancient celebration continue, we remain steadfast in our traditions.
