RNA – In a meeting with Mohammad-Javad Zarif, Iran’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Grand ‎Ayatollah Hoseyn Nouri-Hamadani emphasized that the United States and Europe aren’t ‎reliable and trustworthy and added, “Foreign policy must be based on three principles of ‎dignity, wisdom and expediency.”‎

The revered source of emulation made recommendations to Mr. Zarif and added, “What ‎must be considered in foreign policy is the three principles of dignity, wisdom and ‎expediency that the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution [Ayatollah Khamenei] ‎emphasizes and steps must be taken in this direction.”‎
‎ ‎
Ayatollah Nouri-Hamadani emphasized, “Our policy is based on Quranic and Islamic culture ‎and on this basis, we have a relationship with the world, except the United States and ‎Israel, and according to these three principles, we must have a plan.”‎
‎ ‎
His Eminence added, “But trust is different from relationships. One must never trust ‎foreigners because, according to the Quran, the non-believers will never stand alongside us ‎because of their imperialistic and colonial mentality.”‎
‎ ‎
He said that in regard to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), we saw that the ‎United States is by no means trustworthy and stated, “Europe is like the United States ‎because it isn’t doesn’t dare oppose them. Therefore, we must be firm and confront them ‎because a little softness will lead to blackmail and excesses and the Supreme Leader said ‎that whenever we demonstrated softness, we were at a loss. Therefore, there must be no ‎further trust in the United States in any manner.”‎
‎ ‎
Referring to the enemies’ investment in promoting Salafism and the Daesh phenomenon, ‎Ayatollah Nouri-Hamadani ‎said, “Today, Saudi Arabia, with the money of the United States, ‎Israel and the United Kingdom, have launched a campaign by spreading Islamophobia, ‎Shiaphobia and Iranophobia and therefore, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs must demonstrate ‎the true face of Islam and Shi’ism to the world.”‎
