Iranian nation firm to gain its nuclear rights

Iran Interior Minister Mostafa Pourmohammadi said here Sunday that the great Iranian nation is determined to gain its nuclear rights through perseverance despite the opposition of the US and its allies.

Addressing a ceremony marking the Aban 13 (November 4) takeover of former US embassy in Tehran, Pourmohammadi said :

Americans had in the nuclear case piled up high pressure on Iran so as to bring it to its knees.

when the US and its allies realized that they cannot push another resolution against Iran through the UN Security Council, they started to take the illegal and political action of issuing unilateral sanctions against Iran over its peaceful nuclear program.

Iranians are confident that such sanctions would not be the least effective.

Iranian nation has shown in practice that is capable of withstanding sanctions. Officials, however, should try to take necessary arrangements and plans so as to prevent any halt in the country's development.
