“It’s not a difficult task to describe and explain justice, but it is important that people feel in practice that justice has been done,” he said.
He went on to say, “The government will focus on the will of the people in the path of justice, and wherever the will and interests of the people are in conflict with the will of some special group, the public will take precedence”.
Emphasizing that the people are dissatisfied with corruption and discrimination, and therefore the government should base its work on eliminating corruption and discrimination in the country’s administrative system, the president said, “The government should act according to justice and the people should closely monitor the government’s performance”.

The President added, “There was no lack of coordination in this regard in different parts of the government and the government’s position in this regard was quite clear from the beginning. The economic team of the 13th government is working in high coordination to implement government policies and strengthen the national economy”.
