TEHRAN (FNA)- Iranian Supreme Leader's top adviser for international affairs
Ali Akbar Velayati blasted western officials' remarks that Tehran has
changed its policy on Israel, and underscored that Iran will never recognize
the usurper regime.

"Iran will not recognize Israel. We still emphasize that Israel is a usurper
and occupying regime and we will not come along with it," Velayati said in a
meeting with a religious delegation from Pakistan in Tehran on Saturday.

He expressed pleasure that the western states' plots to make the Muslim
states recognize Israel have failed, and said, "The Islamic countries have
not recognized it and the Palestinian people's fight should continue until
they regain their territories."

After reopening the British embassy in Tehran on Sunday following four years
of strained relations between the two countries, British Foreign Secretary
Phillip Hammond claimed in an interview with the British media that the
current Iranian government had displayed a more nuanced approach than its
predecessor to a long-running conflict with Israel.

In relevant remarks on Wednesday, the Iranian foreign ministry rejected
Hammond's recent remarks, stressing that the Zionist regime had no place in
diplomatic talks between Tehran and London.

"We have rejected such media hype (before) and during Mr. Hammond's trip to
Iran, we just discussed potentials of bilateral relations, fighting
extremism and terrorism, etc.," Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Marziyeh Afkham
told reporters in Tehran.

"There were no talks on the Zionist regime and the report that Iran has
changed its position is denied," she stressed.

Also on Tuesday, Iranian Parliament Speaker's Adviser for International
Affairs Hossein Sheikholeslam blasted Hammond for his interfering remarks,
and said Tehran's positions against Israel have not changed at all.

"Our positions against the usurper Zionist regime have not changed at all;
Israel should be annihilated and this is our ultimate slogan," Sheikholeslam
told reporters in Tehran.
