Speaker: We should not be deceived by US

IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency

Tehran, Nov 25, IRNA -- Iran’s Majlis Speaker Ali Larijani said Iran should not be deceived by the US tactics assuming that it has changed its behavior and attitudes towards Iran.

Addressing a gathering on “sustainable development and civil defense” on Wednesday, he said the most urging threat Iran was facing was the hegemonic attitudes and behaviors of the US.

Referring to the history of US hostile actions against Iran in the past three decades, he also stressed that the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution always stopped some people who were somehow influenced by America.

Outlining the US hostile strategies against Iran, the speaker also noted that the US, though quite aware of the all criminal acts it has undertaken against Iran, refrained from extending apologies to the Iranian nation for its wrongdoings.

He said the Americans sometimes utter seemingly friendly remarks about ties with Iran to Iranian officials while they always hide the dagger they are carrying behind themselves.

Larijani further termed as a big mistake the assumption that the Americans would change their tone during the Obama administration, arguing that the problem with the US was basically not its tone but its strategies.

According to the speaker, both in post-election events and in talks related to Iran’s nuclear program the Americans thought that they could affect the situation but then realized that it was a hollow dream.
