Iranian leaders have never been hostile to West

TEHRAN, Nov. 10 (MNA) – Ali Larijani, the Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, emphasized that the country's leaders have never harbored hostility toward the West.

Speaking at the conference “Us and the West in the Thoughts of the Supreme Leader”, Larijani stated that understanding Iran’s relationship with the West requires examining Western approaches, which often pursue peace through power. He criticized historical Western actions, saying that the outcome of Western rationalism has been global wars, and current developments reflect what he described as a period of instability.
