Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said on Thursday his country was not a threat to any other nation and that it wanted interaction with the rest of the world, state TV reported.

“We are in favor of a policy of moderation … Iran is not a threat to any country … Tehran wants interaction with the world, with its neighboring countries,” Rouhani said at a gathering to mark National Nuclear Technology Day that was broadcast live on state TV.

“With moderation we can reach our goals faster … Trusting or distrusting others cannot be 100 percent … To progress, we need to have interaction with the world,” Rouhani said.

Earlier this week, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said that the United States was a “symbol of dishonesty” and that it should not be trusted, emphasizing that Iran should be self-sufficient
