Mahmoud Ahmadinejad demands apology from Obama for Iran comments

Obama said today that he doesn’t take Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s demand for an apology seriously after the Iranian president accused him of interfering in the country’s affairs. According to Fox News:

“The United States has gone out of its way not to interfere with the election process in Iran, and I’m really not concerned about Mr. Ahmadinejad apologizing to me,” Obama said in a joint White House appearance with German Chancellor Angela Merkel after they conferred privately.

“I would suggest Mr. Ahmadinejad think carefully about the obligations he owes to his own people, and he might want to consider looking at the families of those beaten, shot or detained. That’s where Mr. Ahmadinejad and others need to answer their questions,” he said.

Ajad:

Ahmadinejad on Thursday called on Obama to apologize after the U.S. president said he was “appalled and outraged” by post-election violence.

“Mr. Obama made a mistake to say those things. … Our question is why he fell into this trap and said things that previously (President) Bush used to say,” the semi-official Fars News Agency quoted Ahmadinejad as saying.

“Do you want to speak (with Iran) with this tone? If that is your stance then what is left to talk about?” said Ahmadinejad. “I hope you avoid interfering in Iran’s affairs and express your regret in a way that the Iranian nation is informed of it.”
