Iran-President-Nuclear
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Wednesday that resisting bullying powers and ill-wishers of the Iranian nation is much important than having nuclear energy.

Addressing a large group of enthusiastic people in Ardebil, the president said "If we yield to the pressures being exerted by our enemies there will be no chance to maintain our independent." "Our access to nuclear energy will increase the pace of our development," he said.

"Our resistance to bullying powers will bring us more dignity than benefiting from nuclear energy," he said.

"Our access to nuclear energy will prepare the ground for significant development in industrial and economic sectors," said the president.

"When the US fail to pressurize us, there will be no excuse for other powers to do the same," he pointed out.

"Your brave resistance sealed the doom of our enemies and now the country has turned into a powerful country," said the president.

Ahmadinejad said that Iran is not an aggressor but advocates friendship and brotherhood who in turn brings blessing, peace and security for all nations.

He called on people to remain on the scene and help bring more dignity to the country.
