TEHRAN, Feb. 18 (Xinhua) -- Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Tuesday called for a high turnout in the upcoming parliamentary elections to disappoint the United States.
"Elections neutralize many of the evil intentions that the Americans and the Zionists (Israelis) have in mind against Iran," Khamenei said.
"These elections are the response to the chicanery and deception of Iran's enemies," he said, according to Press TV.
Iranian people will go to the ballot boxes on Friday to vote for lawmakers for the 290-seat parliament.
Nearly 58 million Iranians are eligible to vote in the 11th round of parliamentary elections.
