The President of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Masoud Pezeshkian, stated that the systematic follow-up of the legal and judicial dimensions of the recent wars against the country represents an indispensable necessity. He emphasized that this approach, along with its role in enhancing public awareness, forms a foundation for consolidating deterrence capabilities and strengthening the legal influence of the Islamic Republic of Iran in international arenas and forums.
Pezeshkian’s remarks came while he was chairing a specialized meeting today, Saturday, to discuss the legal and judicial dimensions of the two recent wars. The meeting was attended by the Iranian Minister of Justice, Ayatollah Mohaghegh Damad, a number of executive branch deputies, as well as a select group of prominent experts and researchers in the legal and judicial fields.
Pezeshkian stressed the scientific and strategic importance of this initiative, saying: "The employment of the latest legal knowledge and benefiting from the opinions of specialized elites in this field must be carried out within the framework of an accurate and transparent media process that informs public opinion of the facts."
While praising the efforts exerted in preparing the "Comprehensive Atlas of Legal and Judicial Procedural Studies," Pezeshkian reviewed the priorities for managing this project, stating: "The first priority is to continue working on the basis of transparency and commitment to telling the truth. The second is to document the results in a manner that allows them to be presented before national, regional, and international courts. The third is to utilize the capabilities of all Iranian thinkers residing abroad, alongside Muslim lawyers on a global level, contributing to the enrichment of this path and the enhancement of its outcomes."
Furthermore, the Iranian President pointed to the unprecedented level of coordination among the heads of the three branches of government, saying: "The history of the Islamic Revolution has never witnessed such a degree of harmony between the executive, judicial, and legislative authorities in order to pursue the rights of the Iranian people." He added that the Head of the Judiciary, Hujjat al-Islam Mohseni-Ejei, and the Speaker of the Islamic Consultative Assembly, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, are providing all forms of support in this endeavor.
