Iranian nations's resistance strongest response to foul-mouthed US: RouhaniTEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) -Iranian President Hassan Rouhani says national integrity, unity and resistance will be the strongest response to the United States’ inappropriate rhetoric and threats against the Islamic Republic.

“The Iranian nation has from the start stood up to the American rulers’ intransigence, misconduct and breach of promises in all areas, but it has chosen the path of resistance,” President Rouhani told a cabinet meeting on Wednesday.

He slammed the recent belligerent comments by American officials against the Iranian nation as “baseless and unfounded,” noting that their “hollow threats” do not warrant a response.

Following its much-criticized withdrawal from an international nuclear deal with Iran in May, the administration of US President Donald Trump ramped up its tough rhetoric against Iran.

Recently, Trump threatened Iran with hardship “the likes of which few throughout history have ever suffered before” as Washington launched a new campaign meant to foment unrest in the Islamic Republic.

Rouhani said domestic efforts towards increasing production and exports, and popular cooperation with the government to stabilize the market would be a “decisive response” to enemy plots and White House officials.

Confronting US on global arena

The Iranian president further noted that the country has begun its legal and international efforts to confront the United States’ misbehavior.

The chief executive pointed to the complaint filed with the International Court of Justice over Washington’s decision to re-impose nuclear-related sanctions against Iran after it quit the 2015 multilateral nuclear deal.

On Tuesday, Rouhani said, the proceedings yielded their “first success,” with the court announcing to the US that it was not allowed to take any action that could influence the tribunal’s potential rulings before “Iran’s complaint is addressed.”

The tribunal warned the US secretary of state about his actions and plans concerning the matter, Rouhani said. “This is a warning to the US by the world’s most senior legal authority.”

“Today, an absolute majority of world states view or condemn US actions as wrong or at least express regret about them,” said the president, describing it as proof that the Iranian nation’s resistance has been fruitful.
