"The Islamic Republic of Iran as a country that plays a role in regional balance of power, has always been seeking peace and security, and has spared no effort in pursuit of the goal in the strategic region of the Middle East," Kachoueian said.

He reiterated that confronting various forms of terrorism and supporting the rights of Palestinians have always been on top of Iran's agenda.

Under the 2015 nuclear deal, officially known as JCPOA, Iran was relieved from international sanctions in return for curbs on its nuclear program.

President Trump called for a more restrictive nuclear deal and new constraints on Tehran's missile development and regional clout, issues that are not covered by the JCPOA.
