Iranian President Sheikh Hasan Rouhani stressed that it is completely wrong that a government can be overthrown by supporting Terrorists.
“If a government thinks that it can topple another government in the region and increase its [own] influence and power by supporting terrorists, it is 100 percent wrong,” President Rouhani said in a
n address to the 27th International Islamic Unity Conference in Tehran on Friday.
Rouhani said the enemies of Islam and Muslims have always pursued two evil goals: to create and to deepen rifts among Muslims.
“Big and Western powers who are after their own interests in the region and seek to get their claws on the resources of Muslim countries, particularly in the oil and gas sectors, have always followed two ominous goals, namely to deepen divisions and to spread Islamophobia in the public opinion of the world,” the Iranian president stated.
Rouhani warned that the enemies intend to “justify their military presence and political and cultural dominance over the region and make occupiers, aggressors and Zionists overcome our region.”
Referring to the foiled US bid to launch war against Syria, Rouhani said, the enemies of Islam sought to wage a new war in the region and intended to win the public opinion’s backing for new occupation, war and bloodshed in a bid to support the Israeli regime.
The Iranian government held close contacts and joined hands with countries opposing a new war in the region and managed to ward off a fresh conflict, the president underlined.
“In cooperation with regional, extra-regional and certain powers, Iran managed to carry out such a big task. If Russia and Syria had not cooperated, this objective could not have been achieved,” the Iranian president said.
