Tuesday February 15th 2011 - In a statement addressed to the nation, Mir Hossein Mousavi congratulated the people of Iran for the glorious demonstrations that took place on the 14th of February 2011 [25 Bahman 1389] and expressed his condolences regarding the martyrdom of the children of the Green movement, reiterating that the Green movement takes pride in relying on the immense strength and independence of the great people of Iran.
In a short message issued one day after the demonstrations of the 25th of Bahman, the Prime Minister during the 8 year holy war [against Iraq] stated that these glorious demonstrations were attacked on two fronts, on the one hand by the power mongers whose goal is to continue to hold on to money and power and on the other by foreigners and international opportunists who look for their own interests. According to Kalame, the complete content of Mir Hossein Mousavi's message is as follows:
To the honorable nation of Iran,
I salute you. The glorious demonstrations of the 25th of Bahman [February 14th, 2011], a great achievement for our nation and the Green Movement, took place despite the skepticism by many with the participation of male and female warriors representing all segments of our society. Your glorious movement was attacked on two fronts, on the one hand by on the one hand by the power mongers whose goal is to continue to hold on to money and power and on the other by foreigners and international opportunists who look for their own interests; both seeking to attribute this [Green] movement to Zionism, the United States and their allies.
The pride of the Green movement is in its reliance on the immense strength and independence of the great people of Iran. The Green movement has always maintained its independence from foreign influence. Its values and main goal has always been to revive the ideals and aspirations of Imam Khomeini and the Islamic Revolution and to support the various demands of the noble nation of Iran in its quest for freedom. The Green movement has always sought to achieve its goals through peaceful means, emphasizing the fundamental principles of human dignity, recognizing our nations right to sovereignty and determining their own destiny and demanding the unconditional adherence to the Constitution. As your humble companion, I congratulate you on the occasion of your amazing perseverance and wish to express my deepest condolences on the martyrdom of the beloved children of our proud nation.
Mir Hossein Mousavi
