Iran opposes US ouster of Saddam
2003-01-22
Iranian Foreign Minister Kamal Kharrazi said Wednesday that the United States should not be able to remove Iraq's government by force. "If the United States has the right to change the government of another country by force this is not something that we can (accept)," he told deputies at the European parliament.
"If they can do it to Sammy, what's to stop them from thinkin' 'ayatollahs' next?"
"We believe this is the right of people to change their government, not the right of others from outside," he added.
"And if they live under a theocracy or some other kind of dictatorship, where they can't, that's their tough luck..."
Kharrazi, who is preparing for a regional meeting on the crisis in Turkey, was quoted in Tehran as saying that Iraq's neighbours must work to prevent a US attack against Baghdad.
Maybe they should have been doing that all along?
