Iran warns world
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Wednesday warned the country will respond to possible new UN sanctions by all means to defend itself from threats. Khamenei made the remarks in a televised speech from the northeastern city of Mashhad, saying Iran will use “all its capabilities to strike the enemies” if the country faces threats.
The supreme leader also said in the speech that Iran will continue its nuclear activities outside international regulations if the UN Security Council insists Tehran stop uranium enrichment.
“If they take illegal actions, we too can take illegal actions,” Khamenei said, without elaborating what kind of “illegal actions” Iran will pursue if it faces new sanctions.
Earlier on Wednesday, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad stressed that there would be no concessions on Iran’s nuclear rights amid looming vote by UN Security Council on new sanctions against Tehran.
Hardly comforting stuff.
Iran’s RKBA? ;P
