Baqaei emphasized on his X account that the Persian Gulf National Day is not just a celebration; it is an opportunity for reflection. He stated:

“The Persian Gulf National Day is a historical observance that is imprinted on the identity of Iran and the collective memory of the region, and is a symbol of coexistence, interaction, and civilization-building throughout history.”

He further noted that this day invites a review of the shared history among the peoples of the region. Here are some key points he highlighted:

  • The importance of reflecting on the elements that shape regional identity.
  • The need to enhance convergence and good neighborliness among regional countries.

Celebrated on April 30, Persian Gulf Day marks the liberation of the southern shores from Portuguese colonial rule, a significant event that occurred approximately 400 years ago. The Persian Gulf, alongside the Caspian Sea and the Gulf of Oman, forms one of the three major bodies of water along which Iran has its coastlines, enriching its cultural and historical landscape.
