Tehran, Iran, February 26
By Mehdi Sepahvand – Trend:
Former Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has written a lengthy letter of some 3,400 words to US President Donald Trump, propounding his views on a multiplicity of subjects, Ahmadinejad’s website Dolate Bahar reported February 26.
In part of the letter, the former Iranian president writes about racial discrimination, in what seems to hint to Trump’s recent executive order to ban the citizens of seven countries, including Iran, from entering the US.
“Unfortunately, some are pursuing the spread of discriminatory, racist and profit-driven attitudes in human relations, as well as expansion of false boundaries and causing rifts among the people. The Devils are, under false flags of religion, race, skin color and even geography, trying to widen the gap among people, and spread hatred, to create opportunities for themselves,” Ahmadinejad wrote.
“The human society is, in an evolutionary trend, moving toward the one society, and on its way, is pursuing removal of the various borders and gaps among people and nations. Human beings originate from the same root and nature, possessing a divine soul, hence respectable. There’s no enmity and hostility among nations of any religion, thought and race. Resolving the problems of the human society and building a better world would need sympathy, condolence and helping each and every of the world people.”
The former Iranian president concludes by saying, “We should all try to make a better future and to expand friendship, justice and freedom. All people need to feel responsible and enjoy the opportunity to participate in and lead that sacred deed. I’m positive no wise human being will condemn an effort to eradicate racial discrimination and discrimination in the US.”
