In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
His Excellency Mr. Theodor Zhivkov, President of the Socialist Republic of Bulgaria,
The receipt of your congratulatory message on the occasion of the New Christian Year is acknowledged with gratitude. I beseech God, the Exalted, to grant victory to the downtrodden of the world over the arrogant powers.
Rouhullah al-Mousawi al-Khomeini
