We call on the Iranian people to take to the streets, express their position, and not allow riots to distort their demands.
The Iranian government distinguishes between legitimate protests and riots and is ready to implement all necessary changes.
Modern.az reports that Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stated this in his televised address to the nation.
Pezeshkian offered condolences regarding the deaths of civilians and warned young people against terrorism and participation in riots:
“We officially recognize peaceful protests and consider dialogue with protesters our duty. We are ready to meet with all protesting parties within the country.
