Jalili's talks with 5+1, trump card for us: Jannati

Jalili's talks with 5+1, trump card for us: Jannati

The visit of the secretary of the Supreme National Security Council to Geneva and the negotiations with the representatives of P5+1 was a trump card for us, Tehran's interim Friday prayers leader Ayatollah Ahmad Jannati said.

He said during Geneva talks the dignity of Islam and the Islamic system in the country was officially underlined and the position of the Islamic Republic was promoted because the P5+1 was practically put in a passive position during the talks.

"America and the Westerners are used to regard themselves as masters and others as obedient and to threaten others with pressure and intimidation but have acknowledged that this policy has become old and out-dated," Jannati told worshipers in this week's Friday prayers.

"Today the system and the Islamic Revolution are alive and people resist the sanctions," he added.

Referring to the assassination of two Iranian nuclear scientists, Tehran's Friday prayer leader said: "The Westerners think they can stop nuclear activities in Iran with assassination."

Ayatollah Jannati further appreciated the initiative by the secretary of the Supreme National Security Council Saeed Jalili in observing one-minute silence in the memory of the recently assassinated Iranian nuclear scientist.

He said Jalili’s remarks stating that the P5+1 was responsible for the bloodshed of the Iranian scientists through sending clues to terrorists by declaring the names of the Iranian scientists, was an intelligent move because it changed the atmosphere of the talks to the benefit of Iran.

Stressing the inefficiency of the policy of putting pressures on Iran, Ayatollah Jannai referred to Jalili’s remarks who said during the talks the nuclear issue was already over for Iran and that it was necessary for the participants to focus on points of common interest in international and global issues if they wanted the talks to continue.

He said international peace and security, non-proliferation of nuclear arms, disarmament of owners of atomic arsenal and peace were the topics Iran was always ready and keen to talk about.

The Friday prayers leader went on to stress that the sanctions against Iran have already failed, noting that any kind of moves like this only resulted in further resistance of the Iranian nation just like the way terrorist operations consolidated people’s firm will.

Ayatollah Jannati pointed to the martyrdom of martyrs including Beheshti, Rajaee, Bahonar and Motahhari, asking the Westerners: "What have you gained through assassinating scholars? Why you don't give up this approach?"

"Westerners have lost their wisdom; Which assassination toppled a government?" Tehran's Friday prayer leader asked.

Referring to the hostilities against the Islamic Republic of Iran's system, Ayatollah Jannati said: "The MKO grouplet assassinated 13,000 Iranian people and officials through various methods and yet the Westerners support the terrorist grouplet shamelessly."

He also pointed to the martyrdom of the Iranian scientist Majid Shahriari and said: "The great martyr was one of the best scientists in the field of nuclear technology."

"The entire world should know if all powers unite and plot against us, the Iranian nation will not surrender to the enemies," Ayatollah Jannati reiterated.
