MEHR: Iran could be pushed into changing its nuclear doctrine if its existence is threatened, an adviser to Leader of Islamic Revolution has told foreign media.
“We have no decision to build a nuclear bomb but should Iran’s existence be threatened, there will be no choice but to change our military doctrine,” said Kamal Kharrazi, an adviser to the Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Ali Khamenei told Al Jazeera on Thursday.
“In the case of an attack on our nuclear facilities by the Zionist regime, our deterrence will change,” he was reported as saying by local Iranian media.
Kharrazi also answered questions about the war on Gaza and said that the Israeli regime would continue its aggression with or without a deal with Hamas resistance movement.
"Hamas wanted to show its goodwill, but you witnessed that the Israeli regime chose to use force in response to Hamas good will," he said about Hamas agreement to Qatari and Egyptian proposal to reach a ceasefire.
