Iran's Armed Forces ready to cooperate with new gov.: Top official

The highest-ranking Iranian military commander relayed the Armed Forces' compliance and readiness to cooperate with newly elected president Masoud Pezeshkian's administration following his victory during the runoff elections. 

The Iranian Armed Forces' Chief of Staff, Major General Mohammad Baqeri, made his statement on Sunday, in a congratulatory message following Pezeshkian's victory in the nation's runoffs.

Baqeri hailed the high voter turnout during the elections as invigorating, describing the elections themselves as a major factor in cementing national unity and preserving and defending the country's security and sovereignty against "the enemies' hostile plots."

“I hope that by further strengthening the defense capabilities of the Armed Forces, we will make a big leap in establishing the authority, deterrence power, security, and defense of the sacred ideals of the Islamic Republic and our holy land,” he said. 

On Saturday, the Iranian Ministry of Interior announced the victory of candidate Masoud Pezeshkian in the Iranian presidential elections runoff, following the completion of vote counting in tens of thousands of polling stations across the country.

According to the official figures from the Ministry, Pezeshkian received 16,384,403 votes, compared to 13,538,179 votes for conservative candidate Saeed Jalili, thus becoming the ninth elected president of the Islamic Republic of Iran since the victory of the Islamic Revolution led by Imam Khomeini in 1979.
