Zarif reacts to Rouhanis rejection of his resignation

MNA Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif has reacted to President Rouhanis decision to reject his resignation, thanking the Iranian nation and officials for their support.

Moments after President Hassan Rouhani rejected Zarifs resignation by deeming it against the countrys national interests, the foreign minister in an Instagram post on Wednesday morning thanked the Iranian nations and officials generous kindness and support during his tenure, especially in the last three hours.

As an insignificant servant [to the country], I have never had any concerns other than the enhancement of foreign policy and the credibility of the Foreign Ministry as the one responsible for advancing [the countrys] foreign policy and standing at the front line of defending the national interests and the rights of the Iranian people in the international arena, wrote Zarif.

The top Iranian diplomat went on to hope that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in cooperation and coordination with all other organs, as well as with guidance and supervision of the Leader of the Islamic Revolution and the president, would be able to carry out all of its missions within the framework of the countrys Constitution, laws, and the general policies of the Islamic Establishment.
