By Staff, Agencies

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani stated that he believes the inauguration of development projects in the Islamic Republic of Iran is a strong response to the Unites States and ‘Israel’.

Rouhani made the remarks through a video conference on inauguration of different infrastructure and development projects in southern Iranian province of Bushehr on Thursday.

Despite the economic problems with which most of the world countries have faced due to the coronavirus pandemic since December 2019, the Iranians joined hands to the government to help overcome the difficulties, Rouhani said at the opening ceremony.

He called on the people not to care foreign propaganda as they [the US and ‘Israel’] are not reputable because they have always tried to take anti-Iran measures in different era of history.

Elsewhere, Rouhani talked of the death of the black American citizen, George Floyd, at the hand of the US police, saying the United States oppresses immigrants and those who make objection to the White House policies.

The US, today, is at the worst situation in its social and political history, he stressed.

It makes no difference whether the one killed in the US was Muslim, Christian, American or non-American, the major issue is that the US police committed a deliberate homicide, Rouhani said, adding that it is a strange story that tells us that humans are still far from civilization.

Rouhani further expressed sympathy with the American people.

Censuring US President Donald Trump for using the Bible as political props, Rouhani said Iran condemns the crimes being committed by the US administration these days when dealing with demonstrators.

The Bible invites people to peace and tranquility not to kill the innocent, said the president stressing that Iran respects all holy books.
