Rouhani: Iran Firm in Supporting Palestine, Vienna Talks to End with Our Victory

By Staff, Agencies 

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani reiterated his country’s support to the Palestinian cause with all its strength.

Speaking at a cabinet session on Wednesday, Rouhani highlighted that “The Palestinian victory will surely come on the hands of its people.”

He further hoped that “The Islamic countries and international organizations strengthen their efforts to end the ‘Israeli’ crimes against the Palestinians.”

On another level, Rouhani predicted that “An ultimate triumph for Iran will take place at the conclusion of the ongoing Vienna talks about the 2015 nuclear deal.”

“We have made great strides today,” the Iranian president added, criticizing the parties that are uneasy about the nuclear negotiations in Vienna.

Rouhani said his administration has not held any negotiations from which it has not emerged victorious, no matter what the opponents intend.

“We want to resolve the problems with the exports and imports, while some may become upset. We want to have the sanctions terminated, but some are mourning,” he deplored, warning that prioritizing the party and faction’s interests over the national interests would be tantamount to treason against the nation.

In parallel, Rouhani stated that one of the main achievements of his administration has been the US government’s acknowledgement that its policy of maximum pressure and economic war on Iran has been wrong and ended in failure.

“This is a great victory for Iran that nearly all top US officials have conceded defeat,” he added.
