Nation’s steadfastness defeated US-Israeli ‘evil arrogance’: Top Iranian official
Chairman of Iran’s Expediency Council Ayatollah Sadeq Amoli Larijani has praised the resilience and steadfastness of the great Iranian nation in the face of the "evil arrogance" of the US and the Israeli regime.
"The pure blood of the proud martyrs of this cruel battle, especially the pure blood of our dear and noble martyred leader (Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei), was a holy breath that ultimately led to the awakening and uprising of the entire nation," Amoli Larijani wrote in a post on X, following the Memorandum of Understanding reached between Tehran and Washington.
He added, "This experience once again revealed the truth that the fortress of Islamic Iran is only preserved by the presence of the people, the struggle of the Armed Forces, and the efforts of the authorities of the Islamic establishment."
“The enemy learned in this war that it must respect the Iranian nation and the Islamic Republic,”

Therefore, regardless of any hasty conclusions about the possible outcome of the MoU, the chairman of Iran's Expediency Council said he considers it his duty to pay his sincere respects and tribute to this great resistance, and ask the Almighty God for the steadfastness and piety of all walks of society, brave servicemen of the Armed Forces, and officials.
On Sunday, Iran's Supreme National Security Council announced that the MoU made between Tehran and Washington earlier in the day will bring an end to warfare on all fronts, including in Lebanon. Moreover, the naval blockade against Iran will also be ended completely and without delay.
The SNSC secretariat declared that, guided by its late Leader Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, the instructions of the current Leader Ayatollah Seyed Mojtaba Khamenei, the steadfast support of the Iranian people, and the relentless efforts of the nation's armed forces, the Islamic Republic has concluded a phase of challenging and intensive talks.
The MoU is scheduled to be officially signed on Friday, June 19.
