Western threats against Islamic Republic, including sanctions, will boost Iranian nation's resistance against enemy, Tehran's provisional Friday prayer leader, Ayatollah Mohammad Emami Kashani said Friday.

“People care about enemy plots to break their national unity and to decrease their participation in the upcoming parliamentarian election (2012, March 2),” he said.

Tehran's interim Friday prayer leader added that large presence of people on February 11 ceremonies which marked the 33rd anniversary of the Islamic Revolution showed their interest in their government and leadership.

“Ongoing regional Islamic Awakening will help to boost democracy and the rule of Islam; western threats including sanctions on Iranian oil will strengthen the nation’s commitment to resist hegemonic powers’ illogical demands; western nations and companies are first victims of sanctions against Tehran,” he underlined.

A parliamentary election will be held in Iran on March 2nd, 2012, to elect new members of the Islamic Consultative Assembly, Majlis. The week-long registration of candidates began on December 24th under the supervision of the Interior Ministry, as usual.
