Iran Warns of Using Threatening Language against It

Iranian Supreme National Security Council Secretary Saeed Jalili stated Wednesday that his country was prepared for the negotiations with group 5+1, and that it will be proposing new suggestions, Al-Alam TV Station reported.

According to the Arabic-speaking Iranian channel, Jalili said in a press conference in Tehran that he hoped the other part would follow a similar method during the negotiations, indicating that “the language of threats and pressure against Iran would never bring results”.

Moreover, the Iranian official pointed out that the Islamic Republic was able to succeed and progress on various levels, assuring that “the Islamic awakening in the region, the firm national cohesion that resulted from the elections, as well as the scientific and technical progress in various fields, enables Iran to defend its rights even more than before.”

In the same context, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad warned earlier Wednesday countries of using the language of force and insults.

“A bullying rhetoric will not affect the Iranian nation,” IRNA quoted Ahmadinejad as saying before a large group of people in the Iranian southern island of Abu Moussa.

On another level, the Iranian president advised some regional states to halt supplying arms to terrorist groups in other countries, cautioning them that they might face the same thing in the future.

According to Fars news agency, Ahmadinejad said that “if you send your money to pay for weapons and harm other states, you should know that the day will come when the arrogant powers would do the same to you.”

“Rulers of some regional states should not assume that they are the arrogant powers’ blue-eyed boys for we tell them that these very same arrogant powers will do the same to them,” he added.
