Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman Abbas Araqchi said Sunday that the heads and the officials of all world states have been invited to attend the swearing-in ceremony of Iranian President-elect Hasan Rouhani.

In an interview with ISNA, the Iranian official said that regional countries, however, were a priority with regards to the sending of the invitations.

Rouhani’s swearing-in ceremony is scheduled to be held on August 4, one day after his endorsement by the Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khamenei.

The Iranian president-elect won Iran's June 14 presidential election with 50.7 percent of a total of 36, 704, 156 ballots. Voter turnout in the election was 72.7 percent.
