The decision-makers must be careful not to create hardship for themselves and the region, Ayatollah Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, former President and current chairman of the Supreme National Security Council, told worshippers during his Friday prayers sermon in Tehran, the state-run news agency ISNA reported.
They must not untie a knot which can be opened with the hand using their teeth, Rafsanjani said.
He called for unity among the various factions of the ruling theocracy. At this juncture when the enemies have their eyes set on our country, we must protect the status of the country through this unity.
Rafsanjani said that Irans enemies were seeking to prevent Tehran from acquiring nuclear capabilities through illegitimate methods such as infiltrating the United Nations.
