Tehran, 2008 Nov 7, IRIB
Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in a message on Thursday congratulated the American president-elect Barack Obama on his election victory.
He also said that it is expected basic and clear changes would take place in Washington's foreign and domestic policies, as demanded by all nations worldwide and the American people.
"As you know the opportunities provided by the Almighty God, which can be used for elevation of nations, or God forbid, for their collapse, are transient," the message read.
"I hope you will prefer real public interests and justice to the never ending demands of a selfish minority and seize the opportunity to serve people so that you will be remembered with highesteem," he said.
"On the other hand, the Americans who have spiritual tendencies expect the government to spend all its power in line with serving the people, rectify the critical situation facing the US, restore lost reputation as well as their hope and spirit, fully respect human rights and strengthen family foundations. Other nations also expect war-oriented policies, occupation, bullying, contempt of nations and imposing discriminatory policies on them to be replaced by the ones advocating justice, respect for human rights, friendship and non-interference in other countries' internal affairs," President Ahmadinejad added.
"They also want US intervention to be limited to its borders, especially in the Middle East. It is highly expected to reverse the unfair attitude towards restoring the rights of the Palestinians, Iraqis and Afghans."
"The great nation of Iran welcomes basic and fair changes in US policies and conducts, especially regarding the Middle East," President Ahmadinejad said.
Ahmadinejad also wished success, health and welfare for all humans and for the rulers to seize the opportunity to administer justice and eliminate tyranny from the face of the world.
