Iran believes that the annihilation of all weapons of mass destruction is a
sacred goal and that the security and health of humans depend on it.”

Iran's president says the production and use of weapons of mass destruction
are religiously forbidden in Iran's defensive doctrine based on Islamic
teachings and an explicit fatwa by the Leader of the Islamic Revolution
Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei.

On February 22, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei said the Iranian nation has
never sought and will never seek nuclear weapons as it has the capacity to
challenge the nuclear-backed influence such powers rely on.

"Iran believes that the annihilation of all weapons of mass destruction is a
sacred goal and that the security and health of humans depend on it," said
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Wednesday.

He stressed the importance of strengthening cooperation and interaction
among all countries in the world to achieve this objective.

The explicit stance and ideal of the Islamic Republic is based on the
establishment of peace and security in accordance with the national
interests of all nations and a world free of weapons of mass destruction, he
pointed out.

The Iranian chief executive called on all global bodies and the
international community to fulfill their human responsibility about the
victims of chemical weapons, emphasizing that the Iranian government would
spare no efforts in this regard.
