Iran’s president Ebrahim Raisi said the US wants to destabilize Tehran by expressing support for Iranian women's protests at all costs.
Iran's president Ebrahim Raisi gives a scouring reaction to the US, who is the 'Great Satan,' according to him, is the entity that intends to destabilize Tehran with chaotic actions.
US President Joe Biden expressed support in an attempt to use the protests over the death of Mahsa Amini to leverage the US as a supporter, but the Iranian leader said that Washington is the one causing the upheaval.
Raisi Blames US for Iran's Chaos
President Raisi last Sunday called the Biden administration the author of chaos and violence that is an attempt to weaken the Islamic republic, reported The Republic World.
The US president is using the protests to call the Iranian authorities not good people. He uses the unfortunate death of a 22-year-old Kurdish woman allegedly caused by morality police to cause trouble by encouraging women and girls in Iran to protest.
Leaders in Iran know that the White House is using anti-regime and anti-hardline clergy to attack Raisi and weaken his position. But the Iranian leader called the remarks Biden amoral and intent on trying to destabilize Tehran through chaos and terror, noted AP News.
Iran's president Ebrahim Raisi added that it reminds people of the everlasting utterance of the founder of the Islamic Republic, who named the US 'the Great Satan, bringing up the first supreme leader of Iran, the late Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomenei's viewpoint on America.

The Islamic awakening is credited to Khomeini, the most influential Iranian cleric to date, who made Iran a paradigm for fundamentalists across the Middle East. Khomenei, Iran's most influential figure, is closely attributed to anti-Western "Death to America" slogans, citing News 24.
Its very first Iranian supreme leader transformed the Western-like Iranian culture into an Islamic state, deposing the then-political head of state called the "Shah," but instead ruled the country as a theocratic state from 1979 till his passing in 1989.
Raisi unleashed an anti-US diatribe against American leaders for conveying unity with the anti-conservative women protesters.
Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei accused Israel and the US of being behind the demonstrations to paralyze Iran's headway. Oslo-based Iran Human Rights asserts that as many as 201 were killed as protests began on September 16.
Iran Accuses US of Hypocrisy
He has slammed the world's double standards, accusing them of inciting human rights violations within their own countries. He had remarked on America's macabre silence on the event of the death of a homeless woman in the West.
A large truck crushed and killed a homeless woman in her 30s who'd been asleep under cardboard in a parking lot of a Vons grocery store located in Echo Park, United States. As the LA County coroner's office reported, the body was left neglected for several hours before someone contacted the police.
Raisi mentions that the US prefers unrest and protests like the death of Mahsa Amini but hates any state with good things to report.
Nasser Kanani, the spokesperson for Iranian foreign affairs, underlined Raisi's perspective, saying Iran will "not be swayed" by any outside intervention.
