IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency

Tehran, Oct 11, IRNA -- Deputy Foreign Minister for Legal and International Affairs Abbas Araqchi said on Sunday that after Majlis puts seal of approval on the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, a new phase will open to implement the JCPOA.

He said that the Iranian people are a peace-loving nation and have contributed to international peace throughout history.

'Iran never waged any war in the past 250 years and this is a principle of teachings of our religion,' he said.

To live in peace, all should try to create its required circumstances, he said.

To prevent a war, you should be well prepared to deal with it, he said adding that this is the world of might and those who feel weak will be trampled upon, therefore you should be powerful to guarantee to live in peace, Araqchi said.

Iranian civilization and cultural teachings taught the Iranians -- 'if you wish to live in peace, you should be powerful,' he said.
