{{Hassan Rouhani, Iran’s president-elect, has brushed off threats of military action by Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu over Tehran’s nuclear programme.}}<\/p>\n

Referring to the US and Israel, Rouhani said: “When some say that all options are on the table and when a miserable regional country says such things, it makes you laugh.”<\/p>\n

In an address to Iran-Iraq war veterans on Wednesday, in which he rebuked Netanyahu, Rouhani said: “Who are the Zionists to threaten us?”<\/p>\n

He also said that warnings of an Iranian retaliation had stopped Israel from carrying out its threats to launch strikes on the country.<\/p>\n

According to the semi-official Mehr news agency, the Iranian foreign ministry characterised Netanyahu\u2019s remarks as Israel’s\u2019s interference in the internal affairs of other countries and its attempts to damage other countries’ relations with Iran.<\/p>\n

Netanyahu on Sunday renewed his threat to take unilateral military action to halt Iran’s nuclear programme.<\/p>\n
