In a speech to students and academics in Mashhad, he was quoted as saying that Iran's conditions had changed completely as it had become a nuclear state and could talk to other states from that stand.
Prilikom govora pred studentima i profesorima u gradu Mašadu, rekao je kako se iranska pozicija potpuno promijenila postajanjem nuklearne zemlje, i kako će ubuduće s te pozicije pregovarati s drugim državama.
