The election was held amid an ear-splitting political and media campaign by the United States as well as its Western and regional allies trying to portray the vote as “undemocratic.”<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Many world leaders, senior foreign officials, prominent figures, and regional resistance leaders have so far offered congratulations on Raeisi’s victory in the presidential election.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

On Saturday, Maduro and Foreign Minister Jorge Arreaza welcomed the election of Raeisi as the next Iranian president during the “impeccable and democratic development,” referring to the election.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

In a post on his Twitter account, Maduro said, “I extend my congratulations to the Iranian people and to Seyyed Ebrahim Raeisi, the newly elected President of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Arreaza also released a statement in support of the Iranian government and nation.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
