Ali Soufi, Minister of the Reformist Government: Reformists have not been and are not subverters.
Ali Soufi, Minister of the Reformist Government, says that reformists oppose the current situation but are not subverters or proponents of violence. They say, ‘We reject violence, we accept the system, and we want to make reforms within the framework of the constitution,’ exactly the point that Khatami mentioned in his statement.
He added that if the issue of protests is well understood by the authorities, these protests are not a threat to God, but an opportunity, because these are our understanding youth who should be managed and nurtured.
