Iran is determined to use peaceful nuclear technology and no intimidation or threat can make us give it up.

Iran has no physical presence in Palestine, and all we do is aid the Palestinians spiritually, ideologically and medically.

This is a sensitive issue. We cannot give up our rights. No Iranian will be ready to give up our rights, and they should know that we will remain firm.

They want to deprive Islamic nations of having nuclear energy knowledge and always keep them backwards.

The games will take place despite radical political change in the country.

With wisdom we will get our rights, and if they create any trouble for us, they will regret it in the end and Iran will emerge triumphant.

If (the West) shows its rigidity by making unjust decisions and putting their threats into practice, the Iranian people will not be the only ones to pay the price.

I appreciate those who voted for me, and I respect those who did not. I entered the election race to try to protect national unity, and I withdraw now for the same reason.

Threats and unilateralism will be futile and rather make the situation more difficult for negotiators of both sides.

Today, we possess the basic technology to produce and launch satellites.

These people think they have defeated Iran, but they should know that Iran is not a place where they can do what they did with Libya and Iraq.

If you (the Europeans) are really honest and worried that Iran may obtain nuclear weapons, there are better ways to gain confidence.

Iran is determined to improve its military capabilities.

The eloquent voice of the revolution.

Today we have the power to fire missiles to a range of 2,000 kilometers.

Our people are not going to allow their nuclear rights to be seized.

Passing a tough resolution or threatening Iran will not bring about the desired outcome.

The people can be sure that their vote will be the same as the ballot that they wrote and put in the boxes.
