"The U.S. government’s performance during the past years has been in a way that
the world has realized that the U.S. as an unreliable country that does not
abide its commitments,” Rouhani stated.
Rouhani said in the current situation, the friendly countries should stand
beside each other and expand relations.
"Tehran is determined to expand comprehensive international relations and
cooperation (with the world) especially Pyongyang,” the Iranian president
remarked.
For his part, Ri said North Korea’s strategic policy is to expand relations with
Iran and counter unilateralism.
Ri also gave Rouhani a report about the meeting between North Korean leader Kim
Jong-un and U.S. President Donald Trump in Singapore on June 11.
He described the U.S. withdrawal from the 2015 nuclear deal and re-imposition of
sanctions against Iran as a wrong action which runs contrary to international
regulations.
U.S. President Donald Trump announced Washington’s exit from the nuclear deal on
May 8 and ordered restoration of sanctions against Iran.
The first batch of sanctions was snapped back on Monday, August 6. The second
batch will be restored on November 4.
The North Korean chief diplomat was in Tehran on a two-day visit.
He met with Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif on Tuesday.
