Tehran, The Gulf Observer: Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian on Wednesday underscored the fundamental and equal role of women in society, stating that it is inconceivable to assign them any status lower than that of men.
Addressing a ceremony marking Woman’s Day and Mother’s Day, President Pezeshkian emphasized that women are “the pillars of society and the builders of the country and its future.”
“Men and women build life together and are responsible for raising children and the future-makers of the country,” he said, highlighting the shared responsibility and partnership between the genders.
Describing the role of women and mothers as carrying “a very high level of importance and value,” the president criticized “wrong beliefs” that reduce women to mere tools.
“I believe that those who do not see women and their valuable place in society are blind,” he remarked.
President Pezeshkian concluded by congratulating all Iranian women and mothers, reaffirming his full confidence in their abilities and their significant contribution to Iran’s future.
