Zarif: US Won’t End Old Hostility to Iran

“The age-old enmity of the US toward Iran will not end even if the nuclear issue is settled because they (Americans) want to change Iran from an ideological country to a different one,” Zarif said in a meeting with head of the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB), Ezzatollah Zarghami, and his deputies in Tehran.
 
He added that the main component of power in modern and lasting diplomatic equations is relaying on people.
 
The Iranian foreign minister pointed to the forthcoming talks between Iran and the six major world powers, saying, “At the end of the negotiations, all unfair and cruel sanctions against Iran must be lifted and the nation’s nuclear rights must be asserted.”
 
“As we have always said, we will prove that we have never sought to produce atomic weapons, nor will we ever do so,” the top Iranian nuclear negotiator pointed out.
 
Zarghami, for his part, said the IRIB will continue support for Iran’s diplomatic efforts.
