Iran will not go to war with any nation: Rouhani
Tehran (KNA) - President Hassan Rouhani reaffirms that Iran does not seek war with any state, but stresses that the Iranian nation will be the ultimate winner of any warfare against the Islamic Republic.
We will not wage war with any nation, those facing us are a group of politicians with little experience," said Rouhani, addressing an inauguration ceremony at the Imam Khomeini International Airport (IKIA) in southern Tehran on Tuesday.
Rouhani's comment came a day after acting US Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan announced the deployment of about 1,000 more troops to the Middle East amid escalating tensions with Iran.
Tehran has time and again said that it does not seek military confrontations with the United States, yet stands ready to defend its interests in the region.
