Rouhani Thanks Reformists for Unwavering Support

President Hassan Rouhani expressed gratitude for the reformist faction's strong support for his administration in a meeting with a group of pro-reform activists in Tehran on Wednesday. 
"I have regarded and still regard reformist allies as associates of my administration," he was quoted as saying by the president's official website. 
He stressed that under the present critical situation, the country needs to look beyond reformism, fundamentalism and other similar political persuasions because all parties need to join hands to help achieve common goals.
