Tehran, Feb 7, IRNA – President Hassan Rouhani urged the nation to take part in the upcoming elections in Iran under any circumstances.
Addressing a gathering on women, development and moderation here Sunday, the President regretted that the country was presently suffering from extremism from both ends.
He said extremism takes its roots not from violence but from minds.

Saying that people should be quite vigilant now at the threshold of elections, he added he is quite aware of the problems and shortcomings the country is facing but is thinking of long-term goals.
