Tehran, Apr. 27 – “Today’s world is suffering from the legitimising of fascism and I am astounded that the United Nation’s General Secretary is leading the way in this regard”, Mohammad Khatami, the Iranian regime’s president, said today.

Khatami made the spiteful comments against Kofi Annan as he was receiving honorary international relations doctorate from Tehran University.

On the Secretary General’s decision to reform the United Nations, Khatami added “There is room for astonishment that a person, who has himself suffered from oppression and injustice while trying to spread lawfulness, is today calling for the legitimisation of modern fascism”.

Khatami, dubbed a ‘moderate’ by the West, is serving his final term in office.

Iranians are now disillusioned of his promises of change, noting that the ‘lame-duck’ president was never willing nor capable of bringing about serious reform in Iran.
