A senior lawmaker underlined that Israel is badly enraged by the change in tone of speech by Iranian and US officials. “Only the Zionist regime of Israel has terribly become sad,” member of the parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Ahmad Shohani said on Saturday. He reiterated that the international community welcomed the Iranian diplomatic delegation’s plans, which were in accordance with the country’s national interests. “In reaction to the Islamic Republic of Iran’s explicit and transparent statements, we expect the other sides to prove their goodwill in practice,” Shohani added. Earlier, the Islamic republic news agency reported last night that the Iranian and the US presidents talked over phone before President Rouhani’s departure from New York. The two presidents talked over the phone as President Rouhani was in a car and heading towards the New York International Airport. President Rouhani and President Obama discussed different issues during their phone conversation. The Iranian and US presidents underlined the need for a political will for expediting resolution of West’s standoff with Iran over the latter’s nuclear program. President Rouhani and President Obama stressed the necessity for mutual cooperation on different regional issues. Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif and his US counterpart John Kerry have been commissioned to follow up talks between the two countries.
