Took a swipe at President Trump and Cyrus the Great.
““The Nowruz messages have historically been occasions when the White House limits itself to good year wishes,” said Ray Takeyh, an expert on Iran at the Council on Foreign Relations. “It was during the Obama administration that they were infused with political content, as the White House was searching for ways to reach out to the Iranian government. So in many ways, the Trump administration’s message is restoring a pre-existing tradition.”
Nowruz greetings typically end with a quotation from a Persian poet. But for Mr. Trump, the White House found a saying attributed to a leader of the ancient Persian Empire, Cyrus the Great, who appeared to share the president’s respect for material success.
“Freedom, dignity and wealth together constitute the greatest happiness of humanity,” Mr. Trump quoted Cyrus as saying. “If you bequeath all three to your people, their love for you will never die.”
