Iranian MPs rally in support of Egyptians

TEHRAN, Feb. 14(MNA)--Iranian lawmakers held a rally on Sunday to show their support for the Egyptian people in their uprising which led to the ouster of Hosni Mubarak who despotically ruled Egypt for three decades.

After 18 days of protests and demonstrations by millions of Egyptians who called for the departure of Mubarak and the establishment of a democratic government, on Friday Mubarak decided to step aside and transfer power to the Supreme Council of the Egyptian Armed Forces.

The MPs took to the streets near the Majlis building in Tehran after Iranian Majlis Speaker Ali Larijani made a speech in support of the revolution in Egypt and against the U.S. political movements against the regional nations.

The parliamentarians shouted slogans like “God is Greatest,” “Muslims Be United,” “Down with the U.S.,” and “Down with Israel.”
