Tehran, June 4, IRNA
Imam-Anniversary-Leader
Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei here Sunday emphasized that no consensus has been reached in the international community on Iran's nuclear program.
Ayatollah Khamenei said that the facts are clear as far as the Iranian people and wise people of the world are concerned.
However, a lie is being propagated by the Americans and several of their allies, the Supreme Leader added.
The Supreme Leader's remarks were part of his address to a huge crowd of people gathered at the late Imam Khomeini's mausoleum in southern Tehran to mark the 17th anniversary of his demise.
Enemies of the Islamic Republic say there is a global consensus against Iran or that Iran is pursuing an atomic bomb or nuclear weapons and is a violator of human rights, the Supreme Leader said.
The US and Zionist mass media have launched a propaganda war on Iran in order to sway international public opinion against the Islamic Republic of Iran, Ayatollah Khamenei said.
But Iran has won the support of 116 members of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) as well as those of the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC), he pointed out, and stressed that independent countries of the world support Iran's nuclear program.
Even countries which supported the US in its allegations against Iran have made it known they were not acting freely and that US pressure made them parrot the allegations, Ayatollah Khamenei added.
