A senior Iranian cleric says the US must show goodwill with regard to Islamic Republic in action rather than through sending letters to Iranian officials,
Press TV reports.
“[US President Barack] Obama must show his goodwill in practice instead of through sending letters [to Iranian officials]. No sooner had he sent his letter [to Leader of the Islamic of Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei] than he extended the Emergency Act regarding Iran,” Ayatollah Mohammad Ali Movahhedi Kermani told Friday Prayers worshippers in the Iranian capital city of Tehran.
He made the comments in reference to Obama’s recent decision to extend the so-called National Emergency Act with respect to Iran that keeps sanctions against the Islamic Republic in place for at least another year.
On November 6, it was reported that Obama had sent a letter to Ayatollah Khamenei last month about possible cooperation in the fight against the ISIL terrorist group.
