The IRGC issued a statement on Sunday on the occasion of the 15th anniversary of the 2009 nationwide pro-establishment rallies on the ninth of the Persian month of Dey.
Praising the “revolutionary and pious” Iranian people for their insight and epic demonstrations in 2009 that ended months of foreign-incited turmoil, the statement expressed the complete preparedness of the IRGC and the Basij units to bravely safeguard national security and clam and to counter hostile plots aimed at fomenting chaos, insecurity and seditions in Iran.
Echoing remarks by Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, the IRGC said the future of Iran and the region is bright, as the resistance forces will overcome the front of arrogance and Zionism and will prevent the sinister plots from undermining the course of the Islamic Revolution, which is creating civilization and freedom.
On December 30, 2009, millions of demonstrators held nation-wide rallies in Iran to pledge allegiance to the Islamic establishment, putting an end to post-election unrest.
