Iranian President Sends Message of Congratulation to Nowruz Zone StatesPresident Rouhani sent separate messages to the leaders of Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Pakistan, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Armenia, Turkey, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Iraq and Uzbekistan on Thursday.

"Nowruz, this ancient, glorious tradition brings the message of love and kindness, and spring is blowing the spirit of life into nature, the manifestation of endless divine power and the season of renewal," the Iranian president wrote in the message.

"Unfortunately, this year's Nowruz coincided with the spread of coronavirus in Iran and many countries, and it is natural that we need to cooperate with each other on a daily basis to overcome the crisis this dangerous virus has caused," he added, the president’s official website reported.

"We need to help each other by gathering our medicine and medical facilities to fight this invading virus and turn Nowruz feast into the celebration of securing health and blessings for our nations," President Rouhani noted.

The Iranian president has finally wished health and success for the people of the countries in the Nowruz Civilization Zone.

In 2010, the UN General Assembly established March 21 as the International Day of Nowruz. The UN also celebrates the International Day of Happiness.

The international Nowruz Day was proclaimed at the initiative of several countries that share this holiday, including Iran, Afghanistan, Albania, Azerbaijan, the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, India, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkey, and Turkmenistan.
