On the second anniversary of the death of former President Ebrahim Raisi, who died in a helicopter crash in May 2024, Mojtaba issued a written statement through state media, paying tribute to Raisi, the former foreign minister, and other victims of the accident.

He also called on public officials to respond responsibly amid the external confrontations that Iran is currently facing.

Mojtaba stressed, "Now, we stand at the forefront of an unprecedented historical epic of resistance by the Iranian people against the two global terrorist armies—the United States and Israel. The responsibility of all high-ranking officials, including the Supreme Leader and the heads of each ministry, has become heavier than ever before."

He further emphasized, "The only way to repay the blessing of unity among the nation, the government, and all institutions is for public officials to make twice the effort."
