The Iranians honor is that they do not need to be accepted by irregular people like Trump, he said, noting that they
also need not draw Trumps attention to be able to receive visa or not.

Asked about the statement of the UN Secretary General, Antnio Guterres, that Aqsa Mosque destroyed by the Romans is a sacred site for the Jews, he hoped that the secretary general had not said such a thing and if so,
it is not true and logical.
Aqsa Mosque belongs to Muslims and the entire land of Palestine belongs to the Palestinians that has been occupied by the Zionists, he said, hoping that the land would be liberated a day.
Responding to a question about French foreign ministers visit to Tehran, Velayati said if he wants to work for his countrys nation and foreign policy, he should enter into constructive talks with Iran as the first power of the region.
If the French want to pursue the diplomacy of complying with the Americans, they will have no room in the region, he said, noting that if France wishes to attend the region, it should adopt independency in its foreign policy and avoid obeying the Americans.
He also hoped that French foreign ministers trip to Tehran would be in line with its nation and governments wishes, as they always tried to separate their interests from those of the US.
Yamamoto also told reporters that he held deep and clear talks with Velayati on Afghanistan.
He also appreciated Iran for its support for the Afghan National Unity Government.
