Doctor of Medical Sciences in a meeting with the Secretary General of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization:

The process of transition from barbarism to civilization and respect for humanity takes time. Issues that can be achieved through dialogue cannot be achieved through coercion and bullying. We humans must help each other so that all humanity can live in prosperity, development, comfort and health. One should not be greedy for the wealth and resources of other countries and think about looting and invading them. I hope the day will come when we can live together in peace on this earth. America is bullying and countries need to work together to not allow it. Of course, the Islamic Republic of Iran also stands by its principles in authority. We also thank you for your efforts to establish peace and tranquility.
