Speaking at parliament’s open session, Larijani thanked Iranian President Hassan Rouhani for his enlightening and forthright speech in the United Nations General Assembly, responding to the delusional and empty remarks made by US president. "Trump doesn’t realize that the world has changed, and considering his mental capacity he won’t seem to ever understand the fact, said Larijani.

Referring to Trump’s remark that the nuclear deal is an embarrassment to the US, Larijani stated "whether this is embarrassing to you or not, is not our concern; this is an international agreement adopted by the Security Council which the US has violated with different excuses.”

Stating Iran’s last words on JCPOA, the parliament speaker said addressing Trump that he may face "unbelievable” and "irreversible” circumstances. The majority of world leaders disdained Trump’s speech and supported JCPOA, said Larijani talking about the world’s response to the US president.

Stressing the parliament’s special attention on strengthening Iran’s defensive capacity, the Iranian official held that the Iran-Iraq war has led the country to empower and reinforce its defensive capabilities and missile programs as part of its preemptive and defensive strategies.
