“When the terrorist groups killed people in Syria, they (the terrorists) were supported by certain (western) countries but today because their (the westerners’) interests have been endangered, they have taken a different position,” Rouhani said in a meeting with Finnish Foreign Minister Erkki Tuomioja in Tehran on Sunday.
“In the Islamic Republic of Iran’s view, terrorism in any region and any place is terrorism because the life of innocent people is important to us,” he added.
Rouhani underscored Tehran’s preparedness to cooperate with Finland and the EU in fighting terrorism and helping the people who have been displaced due to destructive wars in their countries.
His remarks came after certain European states, including France, called for Iran’s cooperation in fighting the terrorist groups in Iraq.
