Mashhad, 10 April (AKI) – Iran’s hardline president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Thursday his country’s objective was to destroy what he called corrupt western powers.
“Our objective is to annihilate all corrupt powers that dominate our planet today,” said Ahmadinejad.
He was speaking in the holy Shia city of Mashhad, located 850 kilometres east of the Iranian capital Tehran at an event where he met Senegalese president Abdoulaye Wade.
Ahmadinejad also “advised” western powers to repent or, “otherwise Iranians will hoist their flag on the roof of their buildings.”
“Our enemies do not fear the technological, economical and industrial aspects of our nuclear programme, but tremble at the thought of the Islamic republic sitting as equals with them at the same table,” he said.
