Iran-US-Rafsanjani
Expediency Council Chairman Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani said here Thursday that Iran takes the danger of US and Israel seriously.
"Undoubtedly, the US and Israel are not pleased with Iran mastering sophisticated nuclear technology," said Rafsanjani while addressing a group of Syrian elites and scientists at National Assad Library in Damascus on Thursday.
"The US and Israel can make disturbances for the Islamic Republic of Iran but they will receive due response," said Rafsanjani when asked to comment on the US and Israeli threats against Iran's nuclear facilities.
He said the US and Israel could obstruct Iran's scientific progress in the nuclear field and cause disturbances for the country, the region and themselves.
Rafsanjani arrived in Damascus on Wednesday on an official visit at the head of a delegation.
