Rouhani: World’s leading terrorist in no position to judge IRGC
Tehran (KNA) - Iranian President Hassan Rouhani has condemned US President Donald Trump's move in designating the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) as a terror organization, saying the United States as the “world’s leading terrorist” is in no position to make such a decision.
You made another mistake and called the IRGC terrorist; nobody cares what you do," Rouhani said in a speech delivered on the occasion of the National Nuclear Energy Day in Tehran on Tuesday.
"You thought you could sow division in Iran or hurt the IRGC's popularity by speaking against it?" Rouhani asked. "Rest assured that today the IRGC is more popular than ever before in the hearts of the Iranian nation as well as in the region."
Trump said in a statement on Monday that his move "makes crystal clear the risks of conducting business with, or providing support to, the IRGC. If you are doing business with the IRGC, you will be bankrolling terrorism."
