Two Iranian parliamentarians urged the public to preserve national unity and warned that internal criticism, even if justified, may serve the enemy. MP Mohammad Mirzaei said national unity is a pillar of security, while Mehrdad Lahouti accused some individuals of being naturally inclined to oppose the people's success, urging them to avoid divisive language that delights Iran's adversaries.
Two members of the Iranian parliament, Mohammad Mirzaei and Mehrdad Lahouti, issued statements calling for national unity and warning that internal dissent, even if well-intentioned, works in the enemy's favor. Mirzaei, quoted by Iranian channels, described national unity as a pillar of security, while Lahouti asserted that some individuals 'by their very nature were created to act against the current and against the success of the people.' He urged them not to 'try to create division, embitter people's lives, or use nicknames that cause joy to the enemies of the revolution and the regime.'
The statements come amid a series of similar calls by senior Iranian officials in recent weeks, as reported by The Zioneer — including President Pezeshkian's warning on June 25 that any infringement on national unity serves the enemy, and a similar appeal by presidium member Reza Rashidi on June 10. The sustained messaging reflects an ongoing political effort by the establishment to discourage public criticism during a period of heightened military tension and international pressure.
