Describing protest as a legal right of people, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian called on Iranians to separate their way from violent rioters who have been trained by the US and Israel to provoke unrest in Iran, Tasnim reports.

In a televised interview on Sunday, Pezeshkian said the Iranian administration is resolved to treat all Iranian people on the basis of justice and ensure an even distribution of subsidies, regardless of their gender, race or ethnicity. The cabinet has heard the voices of complaint from business people and bazaar after their protests, he said, adding that the protestors have been asked to attend the administration meetings and express their concerns.

“We have made our decision to resolve their problems with every possible approach… That is why we are holding talks with them on a daily basis,” Pezeshkian added. “We consider the protests of people rightful,” the president stated, stressing that his administration is duty bound to talk to people.

“We would never disregard the ones expressing legitimate concerns.” Describing protests as the right of people, Pezeshkian warned that riots, attacks on public properties, arson attacks on mosques, and burning Quran are part of the plots hatched by the US and the Israeli regime, which he said have committed the most heinous crimes in the world.

Pezeshkian said the enemies “have trained a series of elements inside and outside Iran, and have deployed a number of terrorists from abroad into Iran to launch arson attacks on mosques, to set the shops of bazaar ablaze, and to kill people.”

The rioters have killed a number of people with guns, they have decapitated a number of people, and have even burnt some individuals, he stated. Of course these criminals are not ordinary people and are not from Iran, the president said. Pointing to the enemies’ plans to pressurize Iran by creating division, chaos and riots, he said the measures that stoke hatred, such as burning Quran, ate totally unacceptable by the Iranian civilization.
