Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who has the final say on Iran’s nuclear matters, issued his first response since the announcement yesterday, Nov. 24, of another extension of the nuclear talks between Iran and the five permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany (P5+1).
At a conference of Muslim scholars and clerics held in Iran to address the threats of extremist groups, Ayatollah Khamenei said, “American and European colonialist countries gathered together to bring the Islamic Republic to its knees on the nuclear issue, but they were not able to, and in the future they will also not be able to.”
