Khamenei on Eve of Elections

On February 24, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei accused the United States of interfering in Iran’s upcoming elections. Khamenei said that Iran is "standing firm" against the United States' "evil goals" during an address to thousands of people from Najafabad. He also released infographics on his official English language Twitter account urging Iranians to vote. The following are quotes from Khamenei’s speech.
 
Khamenei
 
"When after 37 years and with all pressures and sanctions, the enemy couldn’t prevent people’s allegiance to Establishment, the greatness of Revolution awes it."

"With voting in elections, the Iranian nation stands firm against and defies the enemy."

"One of the enemy’s artifices in election is creation of a bipolarity like ‘governmental’ and ‘anti-governmental’ parliaments."
 
"I strongly believe that despite all the enemy’s propaganda, God Almighty has destined final victory for the Iranian nation."

"After the JCPOA, the US has been seeking one plot for Iran and another for the region; they know which country is standing firm against their evil goals.
