“There is no cause for concern since we have both nuclear know-how in the minds of our young people and the Leader’s fatwa that the use of nuclear weapons is haram. The important point is to make the world understand this through the language of diplomacy,” the former president said in a meeting with a number of MPs in Tehran on Monday.
