MNA � First Vice-President Jahangiri reacted to the anti-Iran remarks made by Mike Pompeo, saying Trump�s Secretary of State is �40 years behind time�.

Iranian First Vice-President Es�hagh Jahangiri made the remarks on Tuesday in reaction to US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who promised �strongest sanctions in history� on Iran if Tehran refuses to change its foreign and domestic policy and to accept his laid-out 12 conditions for any �new deal� in the wake of Trump's pullout from the JCPOA.

�The Iranian nation basically carried out the Revolution so that no [other] country could order them around,� said Jahangiri in a tweet on Tuesday.

�Eventually, Trump�s administration will have to accept, much like its predecessors, the realities of the region that Iran with its longstanding historical and civil background is a great country and nation in the Middle East, and should be addressed with the language of respect and logic, not threat,� he added.
