Mottaki: Big powers using sophistry to cover up their weak logic

Tehran, Aug 2, IRNA – Iran’s Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki said that the hegemonic powers indulged in sophistry to cover up their weak logic in front of Iran.

Mottaki made the remarks here Monday while addressing the opening ceremony of the second grand meeting of foreign-based Iranians.

He said the big powers tried to cloud the issue to make up for their weakness in dealing with Iran’s logical stances.

He stressed that the hegemonic powers indulge in use of power and clouding the atmosphere now that they see themselves defeated against Iran’s rational approaches and manners.

The foreign minister believed that all such attempts are aimed at diverting the attention from the main issues.

Mottaki further stressed the fact that Iran has always been acting transparently in all areas.

Visiting foreign-based Iranians started their meeting with the participation of some senior Iranian officials.

The two-day meeting is being held at the Islamic states summit conference hall in northern Tehran.

About 1,200 Iranians residing in different countries were expected to take part in the event./end
