Official: Regional Power Balance in Iran's Favor after Revolution
TEHRAN, May 15 (FNA)- A senior Iranian judiciary official reiterated that the Islamic Revolution in Iran changed the equations and power balance in the region to the benefit of Tehran.
"What we witness today in the regional developments is that the Iranian Revolution has changed the power balance in the region to Iran's benefits," Director-General of Iran's Judiciary Hossein Sheikholeslam said in a forum in Northeastern Iran.
He underlined that the Islamic Revolution showed to the world how religion and policy can be integrated and the Constitution of a country can be implemented according to the religious laws.
Political observers believe that that revolutions and popular uprisings sweeping the Middle-East and North Africa at present are offshoots of Iran's 1979 Islamic Revolution.
Earlier this month, Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei had also underscored the profound and vast influence of Iran's Islamic Revolution on the growing wave of Islamic awakening in the region, and voiced confidence about the desirable outcomes of the current popular uprisings.
"Thanks to Islam and Islamic Revolution, a public Islamic awakening has happened in the region today, which will definitely yield its results as it has already yielded its results in certain points," Ayatollah Khamenei said, addressing a group of Iranian people here in Tehran.
"The more the people's determination, faith and readiness for sacrifice grows, the higher the chances of victory will be," the Leader continued.
In recent months, a wave of revolutions and anti-government uprisings has been sweeping the Arab world.
In January, a revolution in Tunisia ended the 23-year ruling of former President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali.
In February, another Arab revolution led to the ouster of former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak after three decades of his authoritarian rule.
Other revolutions have also erupted in Libya, Yemen and Bahrain, while other anti-government unrests have started sweping Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Oman, Kuwait and Algeria.
