TEHRAN, Jul. 01 (MNA) – President Rouhani said "today in the shadow of disunity in the Muslim world and the presence of Takfiri and terrorist groups in the region, we have moved away from the ideals of the liberation of Palestine."

Speaking among reporters on the sidelines of the International Quds Day rally on Friday, President Rouhani said one of the aspirations of the Muslim people of the region is regional security and one way of securing the region is that Muslim people could live in their own homeland.

Rouhani said the Palestinian Muslim nation have been occupied for 70 years by occupiers unfortunately committed to none of the international law and humanitarian principles.

He underlined that the Zionist regime is a base for arrogance and the US in the region, adding that today any country that fights against the base and struggles for the region's stability and security is not welcomed by the global arrogance.

President Rouhani reiterated that the only way to reach the ideal is the unity among Muslims as well as resistance, jihad and fight against terrorist and takfiri groups.
