IFP - Seyyed Mohammad Khatami, the former Iranian president and the leader of Iranian reformists, has blasted US President Donald Trump for his recent anti-Iran remarks.





Addressing a group of university students in Tehran on Monday, Khatami referred to Trump�s Friday speech against the Islamic Republic, particularly his accusations against the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps, and noted that the IRGC is among the pillars of Iran�s national security.

Stressing that the IRGC, as a body with roots in the Islamic Revolution, is standing against terrorists, Khatami said it is not acceptable that someone makes such rude remarks against the Guards.

The reformist ex-president said he feels very sorry that such rude and impolite figure has become the president of one of the world�s most powerful countries.

�I am also sorry for the American people and believe that the US nation, at least their elites and elders, do not feel pleased with such a figure, and are even embarrassed,� he added, according to his official website.

Khatami hailed the stances different countries in the world adopted against Trump�s remarks in the past few days, saying the US president is a danger for the mankind and everyone should stand against him.
