Iran Interior Minister Mostafa Mohammad Najjar says the nation added another shining page to Iranian history through mass participation in the country�s June 14 presidential election.
Addressing participants in Hassan Rohani�s endorsement ceremony on Saturday, the Iranian Interior Minister presented a report on the country�s 11th presidential election.

During the ceremony, Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei formally endorsed Rohani as the country�s new president for a four-year term in office in the presence of high-ranking Iranian officials.

Mohammad-Najar further hailed the election as �a symbol of religious democracy and the manifestation of the people�s will,� saying that the Iranian nation created a great epic by taking part in the vote.

The nation�s participation in the presidential election foiled enemy plots against the Islamic Republic, the Iranian minister said.

Mohammad-Najjar said that the Interior Ministry made every effort to hold a successful presidential election.

Rohani secured an outright victory with over 50 percent of the votes in Iran's June 14 election, which was marked by a 72.7 percent voter turnout.
