services. he cares a lot regarding the revolution and the establishment, no doubt about it. while live tv debates are good, these shortcomings should be removed. after the debates, i talked to the president and warned him because i knew he would listen to me. regarding fighting corruption, the goals of the establishment are clear. and issues related to social justice, we have a clear-cut stance. corruption should be fought any where it is. . .
10:01 pm
>> yes, there is corruption, or would not write that eight. letter addressing the heads of the legislative executives of the three branches of the government. yes, we have corruption, but the islamic establishment is one of the soundest and healthiest establishment's the world over today. attributing to some zionist
10:02 pm
reports and resources -- attributing it based on those reports accusing the government of the country of corruption, it is not the right thing to do. questioning the credibility of statesmen is not the right thing to do, either. and into corruption is an important issue and it must be fought against in that executive, at the judiciary, and legislative branches of the government. everyone is obliged to fight corruption. if corruption is not brought under control, it will spread further, as you can see in many world countries, in western countries who work climbing of campaigning, money laundering and such issues, they are up to
10:03 pm
their years immersed in such corruption. this is all part of their scandal. the scandal goes way beyond this that is publicize. let me summarize the part i am addressing to the people. the friday election was an epic. it is historical, it affected the world. some of our enemies in different parts of the world intended to depict this absolute victory and this definitive victory. they wanted to indicate that as a doubtful victory, some even
10:04 pm
wanted to show this as a national defeat. they wanted to give you a bad taste in the mouth. they could not see that the highest turnout in the world goes down in history. it is recorded in history in your name. they cannot manipulated no more. -- manipulate it no more. the time for competition is over. to all those people who voted for these four candidates, they
10:05 pm
will have the rewards from god almighty. they all fought in the battle front of this establishment. they belong to this establishment. this might even be considered as worship for some of these people, depending on their intention. 40 million people have voted for the revolution. it is not only 20 four million that went to the president. 40 million votes were cast in favor of the revolution. people have their trust, but some supporters of some candidates should also know, should be sure that we will never manipulate boats and commit treason.
10:06 pm
>> the electoral structure of this country does not allow any votes to remain. everyone who is in charge of election process, they approve of this fact. 11 million votes difference, sometimes there is a margin of 100,000 or 200,000, but for 1 million, one can doubt there has been some vote rigging, there is
10:07 pm
a difference of 11 million votes. at the same time, i said the point regarding the council accepts the fact that some people have their doubts, and if they have some proof and evidence, then it should be dealt with through legal ways. everything should be dealt with only through legal channels. i will never accept illegal innovations.
10:08 pm
today, if the legal frameworks are broken, in the future, no election will be safe. in every election, some people are winners and some are losers. no election will be trusted in the future this way. therefore, things should be investigated the right way, based on law, and if there is any doubt, we have a
10:09 pm
comprehensive law. there is no deficiency to that. as the candidates have the right to have their monitors and observers, the have the right to file complaints. i ask the respective guardian council if they want to conduct a recount of some votes. they can do it in the presence of the representatives of the candice themselves. they can do that for themselves. they can record everything and sign it in their presence. we have no problem with that. that is what i wanted to address to your respective people. now i want to dress the politicians and the candidate, those party leaders and political groups.
10:10 pm
i want to tell this group of people that today, we are at a critical historical juncture in this country. if you look at the situation in the middle east, if you look at the economic situation across the world, if you consider the issues in our neighboring countries, in iraq, afghanistan, and pakistan, this is a critical point, a critical juncture of history. all of us are duty bound at this historic juncture to remain vigilant, to be careful, to be cautious not to make mistakes. in the election, people did what they were responsible to do, and
10:11 pm
they did it the right way, but we have heavier responsibilities on our shoulders. those who in some ways, those who are looked upon as a source among the people, those politicians and those orchestrating the political waves, those people should be so cautious about their words and their deeds. if they showed just a little bit of extremism, then this extremism will penetrate into the ranks of the people and will lead to dangerous consequences which will get out of their control. they themselves cannot control
10:12 pm
10:13 pm
i recommend all these people, these old friends of mine, to keep self restraint, to be patient. they should see the enemy hands working. they should see the hungry will slaying in ambush -- hungry wolves. they are showing their true face. i recommended to open their eyes and see the enemy. prominent diplomat said of some western countries who have been dealing with us through diplomatic rhetoric the past few days, they have removed their masks.
10:14 pm
you can see their true face nowadays. there is in mint tea toward the is that -- islamic established -- there enmity. people art chanting the slogan, down with the uk. death to the uk. i tell these brothers of hours to think of their responsibility. they are responsible to god. that will be asked here after about their performance. i asked them to remember what imam has recommended in his
10:15 pm
will. the lot is the source of reference for everyone. what is an election held for? what is the reason for holding an election? all the differences should be settled at the ballot boxes. that is what the elections are for. ballot boxes determine what people want and what they do not want, not on the streets. if after every election those who have lost votes, if they
10:16 pm
take to the streets, take their supporters to the streets and protest, and those who have secured the votes, if they also have their supporters on the streets, what on earth hold elections, then? people are having their business in the street. they live there. we should not go to the streets and show off our supporters to people. for a terrorist agents, an insider who is going to deal a
10:17 pm
terrorist blow, that is not a political issue. for those people, hiding among the masses of people is the best thing to do. people are going to take part in the rally. it is a very good cover up for those people who will then be responsible for this. the few people who got killed in the past writinrioting. they were ordinary people. who is to be held accountable for this? the reactions to be shown, they might take advantage of the situation, and there will be an emotional reaction nationally.
10:18 pm
who is going to be responsible for these? you feel so bad hearing of such mishaps. they go to tehran university and they attacked the dormitories. they tack those students who support the -- the revolutionary students are attacked, and a chance slogans supporting the leadership. my heart goes to those people. this slogan assess down to those who oppose the jurisprudence.
10:19 pm
arms wrestling in streets is not the right thing to do after the election. it only challenges the election and democracy. i want everyone to put an end to this. this is not the right thing to do. if they do not stop this, then the consequences of the rioting and everything, they will be held accountable for all this. it is also wrong to assume that through the street riots, they
10:20 pm
10:21 pm
10:22 pm
mine, these friends, to act based on fraternity come on french ship. abide by the law. legal means are there in front of you. peaceful ways aren't there. i ask them to take that way, and i hope god almighty will help us choose that way. everyone owns the progress of the country. the celebration, the 40 million voters celebration should be appreciated. the enemy should not be allowed to ruin this celebration as it wants to do. of course, if some people want to choose another way, then i will have to talk to people, but this time i will speak to them more frankly.
10:23 pm
people announced their readiness to take the people's orders retake their leaders' orders. the third group of want to address, i want to address the leaders of western media and arrogant powers. in the past two or three weeks, i have witnessed the words and deeds of the statesman in the united states and officials of certain european countries. i have followed all these in the
10:24 pm
weeks leading to the election, and on the election day and night after the election, and also the past couple of days after the election was held. there was a changing process. before the election you could see that the bias and the words was that they wanted to cast doubt about the election itself, so that they would see fewer people going to the polls. of course, the result that you see in the elections, they had their own estimations, both europeans and americans.
10:25 pm
they had predicted almost the same results, but this great wave of people, this is what they did not expect to see, this 85% turnout 40 million voters. they never expected this to happen. when they saw this great turnout, they were shocked. the realized what has happened in the world. they came to understand that they need to adapt themselves with a new situation. the international, regional, and nuclear issues, the rent it -- the issues inside iran. they were in for a shot. they realize there is a new chapter in the issues related to
10:26 pm
the islamic republic, and that they have to come to terms with this new situation. this is when they saw this great popular move on election day. their own people and reporters covered the election. on friday morning they started all these comments of reports and some feedback was seen. when some candidates started protesting, then they felt that they had found a chance, so they jumped at the chance. let's call it surfboarding again. their tone after the election changed on saturday and sunday. little by little they cast their eyes on some of the street
10:27 pm
rallies called for by some candidates on the streets. then they pinned their hopes and they gradually removed their masks and showed their true colors. some foreign ministers and presidents and heads of state of a number of european countries and also america. they made some comments that helped you to get to know the real, true self and true intentions better. the u.s. president said that we were waiting a day like this to see people on the streets. some people interpreted these
10:28 pm
remarks to obama, and then they write letters and said that we are ready to have ties, that we respect the islamic republic. on the other hand, they make such comments. which one should we believe? inside the country, the elements -- these foreign elements started work. they started street rioting and vandalism, setting ablaze public property. they made shops and businesses in secure. they looted some shops and actually tried to deprive people of security. people's security was targeted by these people.
10:29 pm
this has nothing to do with people and supporters of candidates. this stems from ill wishers, mercenaries, and the elements working for the espionage machines of the west and zionism. this is the slogan of death to america. what happened inside the country the wrong way, the mistake of some people inside the country, this miss led some people outside the country. they considered iran was like georgia, a zionist american capital just a -- capitalist a few yeargo
