You always supported the sacred spirit of service, dedication, struggle and martyrdom.” He said, “We are proud of your awareness. You are that power of the people’s mind in front of which even the biggest illusion of lies fails. Holding a mirror to the politics of deception, you count on your fingers who did how much work and who only did the politics of deception.

Vote in large numbers and send a message to the entire country that you are with democracy, constitution and positive politics of development.”
