Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Sunday that Tehran wants expansion of relations with all nations and countries, except the "illegitimate Zionist Regime."
According to IRNA, Ahmadinejad told representatives and ambassadors of more than 100 countries based in Tehran that spirituality, ethics, human dignity, fraternity, kindness, passion and mutual respect are bases of such relations. He said current international system, particularly the system governing the United Nations and the UN Security Council, is inherited from the World War II and has been designed by the victors in the said War for dominating the world and for exerting power over global wealth, culture and economy.
He added that since the system has been based on injustice, discrimination and immunity of a special group, privileges and special rights, they can never be able to base their decisions on justice and rights of nations -- the outstanding example being developments in Palestine and the type of their approach towards them. He added that current relations and the system, being based on injustice, will never be able to solve the core of the Palestinian problem. "In Iraq and Afghanistan too we are witnessing bitter events and disrespect for the main owners of the lands," the Iranian leader stressed.
