Acting illegally and not respecting the rights of the Iranian nation, isn't this unjust? We have a very obvious logic. If being able to use nuclear energy and having a nuclear fuel cycle is good then it is good fro anyone. If it is bad, than it is bad for everyone.
This is an another sign of being unjust.
If the U.S. government recognizes our nation's rights, then it will become even closer to the IRI's policies.
TE: Those are the ground rules before you will talk to the U.S.? Is this a requirement?
SH: I mention two points as an example.
The main demand of the Iranian nation is that America must reform its behavior, in the U.N., the UNSC, its behavior towards nations, and towards the Iranian nation.
What's the reason behind the fact that everywhere that the U.S. government is present the people there are against its presence? If you ask the governments themselves in such a way that they are free to speak and without fear of American repercussions they would also say that they are not happy with the presence of U.S. forces in their lands.
Do you think that the Japanese nation is happy that American military forces are residing there? Or the Germans or the Turkish people that Incerclik air force base is in the hands of the Americans? Do you think the Iraqi nation would be satisfied if a contingent of American forces would be permanently stationed there?
The era of military presence for exerting political pressure to control the behavior of governments has ended. I think the time has come that the general stance of American administrations should change.
If in a certain period after WWII there was a pretext of the presence and spreading of U.S. military forces in the world because of the Soviet Union. Today the Soviet Union has crumbled and no longer exists so that pretexts is no longer valid.
The Americans shouldn't try to introduce a new threat in the world: The IRI is a country that supports friendship and peace. We have never been a threat nor will be a threat to neighboring countries. In the opposite we always have been and will be sorry if there is an invasion of any country anywhere in the world. We are a friend of all nations, a friend of all governments, and a flag bearer of peace.
The Americans shouldn't try to introduce Iran as an artificial threat and to use it as a pretext to spread the use of their forces in the region or anywhere else in the world. Or make it a pretext for putting long range ballistic missiles in Eastern Europe.
