Iran will not wage war against any nation: Rouhani

GENEVA-Reuters

Iran will not wage war against any nation, Iran's President Hassan Rouhani said on TJune 18 in a speech broadcast live on state TV.

Fears of a confrontation between Iran and the United States have mounted since attacks on two oil tankers at the entrance to the Gulf on Thursday, which Washington has blamed on Tehran.

"Iran will not wage war against any nation," Rouhani said. "Those facing us are a group of politicians with little experience."
