Opposition of majority of states to the United Nations Security Council's anti-Iran resolution reveals the fact that the bullying powers are no longer efficient, Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki said, IRNA reported.
Addressing a ceremony commemorating birth anniversary of Imam Ali (AS), first Imam of Prophet Mohammad's (PBUH) Household, he added that the resolutions, thus far issued against Iran, have not faced any opposition but the one, passed against the country recently, was rejected by a group of states.
On Iran's stance vis-à-vis the countries favoring anti-Iran sanctions, Mottaki said, "We have sent protest letters to these countries and challenged their votes by setting forth logical evidence."
Referring to the efforts of the arrogant powers' to disappoint the Iranian community, he noted that they want to leave psychological impact by issuing such resolutions.
The country's economic prosperity in the past years shows that such moves are ineffective, he said.
"In the past no country dared to say `No' to the bullying powers but thanks to emergence of new diplomacy and Iran's righteous stance, the countries do not bow to force any longer," the minister said.
Mottaki further said that former US President Jimmy Carter's National Secuirty Advisor, Zbigniew Kazimierz Brzezinski's statement that 'no one counts on our words any more' reveals that Iran's correct logic has gained a firm footing in the world.
