Ahani: Using nuclear arms is sign of weakness, arrogance

IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency

Vienna, Nov 19, IRNA -- Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister for Europe Affairs Ali Ahani says using nuclear arms or threatening to use them is sign of arrogance and weakness.

Talking to a ceremony at Hungarian International Studies Institute on Friday, Ahani said that from the stand point of the Islamic Republic of Iran nuclear arms are not a means for power.

He said there is no limit for expansion of Iran’s ties with other countries in an atmosphere of mutual respect.

Pointing to latest developments in Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine, and the Balkans, Ahani said key to regional problems lies in regional cooperation.

Criticizing double-standards on nuclear disarmament, human rights, and campaign against terrorism, Ahani said the UN current structure should undergo reshuffle so that all nations would have a share in global management.
