Mofatteh then pointed to the U.S. and Zionist regime hostile approaches against Iran, saying that experiences from the eight-year imposed Iraq war and sanctions imposed by the Western countries have taught Iranians to rely on their domestic capabilities for defending their land and providing security.

He also condemned the assassination of Iranian scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh.
