President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Tuesday that the Iranian nation have final say on all international issues, IRNA reported.
He said that Iran is powerful enough to change global equations and no power in the world can take action against the will of Iranian nation.
The President made the remarks in his address to a large crowd of people in the northern provincial capital city of Sari in Mazandaran province where he arrived earlier on Tuesday as part of the third round of his provincial tours.
This is his 80th provincial visit since he took office in 2005.
Some 35 years ago, the Iranian people played no role in global equations and the global power attached no importance to Iranian role, he said.
He said that disgraced people such as Saddam Hussein or George W. Bush who governed part of the globe inflicted heavy damages on humanitarian values and led to total annihilation.
During the era, over one million people were killed and millions of others were displaced and the wealth of nations as well as their legitimate rights were plundered, the president said.
'But at the same time a respectful leader such as late Imam Khomeini led Iran people towards perfection.'
President Ahmadinejad said that the devoted people in Mazandaran have served the country's rich culture and civilization.
