MPs chant 'Death to America and Israel' as Iran’s speaker opens ceremony
Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, in his opening remarks, said that international observers noted the Islamic Republic did not experience any political tension.
"The tragic death of late President Ebrahim Raisi and his companions presented a renewed test for the Islamic Republic of Iran in the eyes of global analysts. The wise leadership of the Supreme Leader turned this into a symbol of stability in Islamic Iran," he added, as MPs chanted the slogan "Death to America" and "Death to Israel".
He stated, "The Parliament will utilize all available tools to support the government in the challenging path ahead."
