DUSHANBE, 21.03.2017. /NIAT «Khovar»/. On the occasion of the International Navruz holiday, the Founder of Peace and National Unity – Leader of the Nation, President of the Republic of Tajikistan, His Excellency Emomali Rahmon is receiving congratulatory messages from heads of state and government of foreign
countries.

Congratulatory message by President of Islamic Republic of Iran Dr. Hassan Ruhani

«I congratulate His Excellency, the state and Muslim people of Tajikistan on the occasion of advent of Nowruz holiday. Nowruz is the most beautiful celebration of nature that promises hope and verdure by turning winter into spring. This festival is the symbol of moderation,
peace, warmness, light, abundance and liveliness that the Almighty grants the human kind; a moderation whose roots are in the changes in the nature, religious beliefs and merciful Islamic laws.

Peace and unity is based on the demands of the moderate nations of the ancient region of Nowruz. Today’s world needs hope more than ever, by which kindness, love and closeness has value and invites countries to interact rather than confront, because nations can rely on hope and peace to confront the misunderstandings of religion and tribal extremism which results in terrorism.

I wish a year full of happiness, health and success for His Excellency and for the friendly and brotherly people of Tajikistan.»
