Rouhani: Iran to Continue Assisting Its Neighbors

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani has defended Tehran’s support for neighbors such as Iraq, saying the assistance will continue.

 “We, as a neighboring country, will continue assisting those nations and governments, which have called for our help,” Rouhani said in a briefing with journalists on Wednesday, according to Press TV.

The Iranian president made the remarks after a meeting with Iran’s Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani and Judiciary Chief Ayatollah Sadeq Amoli-Larijani.

 The Iranian president expressed hope that Iraq could soon regain stability and security as the fight against the Takfiri Daesh terrorists continues.

“We hope that the Iraqi nation would push the terrorists out of their country, and for Syria, as well, we hope that the people of that country would see days of higher security and stability not only in the month of Ramadan but also the rest of the year.”

Iraqi Foreign Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari told Lebanon-based al-Mayadeen television in an exclusive interview aired on June 11 that his country needs Iran’s assistance in fighting terrorists, dismissing US questions about Tehran’s role in the Arab country. Jaafari said Washington cannot dictate its views on Iraq.

Elsewhere in his remarks, President Rouhani slammed terrorist activities in the region, censuring international organizations including the United Nations for their declining influence in settling global issues.
