Iran-Asefi-Bush
Foreign Ministry spokesman Hamid-Reza Asefi said that the remarks of US President George W. Bush are `repetitive and baseless' and aiming to divert attention from the facts about Iran's peaceful nuclear activities and pressurize his allies.
According to a report released by the Foreign Ministry Media Department, he said that in the face of Iran's strong reasoning and firm determination to restore and protect its legitimate rights, the US still continues its chantage and creating a negative atmosphere against Iran.
"The US has not been invited to the region. Its presence in Iraq has promoted terrorism. There is now the general belief that the terrorist moves in Iraq take place under the US direction and support.
"On the threshold of the anniversary of the September 11 explosion of twin towers and five years past the event, which is still ambiguous, the US officials intend to justify their failure and blunder," he noted.
He said that Bush's definition of `dictator' and `dictatorship' not comprehensible to the international community, adding that it is not clear why he insists on using such an unfamiliar literature on the international scene.
"If George Bush is seeking freedom and his true ideals are freedom, justice and security, he will accept our call for debate.
"On account of the wrong policies of the White House and Bush, today he is not respected by the world. Therefore, as US president, he had better deeply contemplate about it," he said.
Asefi recommended Bush not to pass on his blunders and wrong policies mainly aiming to protect the US national interests to the country's future president, but rather be rational, avoid unilateralism, end the US government's current medieval policies and not create chaos and instability in the world.
