An expert on foreign political issues alluded to a necessary and rapid response by the international community, referring to the terroristic actions taken against Iran. He said “America must know that Iran could take action against the U.S. to protect Iranian scientists.”

Sadollah Zarei said, in a reporter’s club discussion in regards to yesterday’s (Jan. 11) incident which resulted in one Iranian nuclear scientist being martyred, that this is very much in line with America’s [actions] these past few years. He also stated, “Enemies with reason to fear Iran’s advancements have begun pursuing the elimination of its physicists.” He said that enemies of the state have come to the conclusion that direct methods, such as sanctions against Iran, will not work; he added, “We have also witnessed the utilization of this scenario by America and Israel against Iraqi scientists and scientists of other countries.”

يك كارشناس مسائل سياست خارجي به لزوم واكنش سريع جامعه بين الملل به انجام اقدامات تروريستي عليه ايران اشاره كرد و گفت: آمريكا بايد بداند ايران مي تواند در دفاع از دانشمندان خود عليه آمريكا اقدام كند. سعدالله زارعي در گفتگو با باشگاه خبرنگاران با بيان اينكه حادثه ديروز كه در پي آن يكي از دانشمندان هسته اي كشور به شهادت رسيد در ادامه خطي است كه آمريكا طي سالهاي گذشته دنبال كرده است، گفت: دشمنان به دليل ترس و وحشت از پيشرفت‌هاي ايران اسلامي به دنبال حذف فيزيكي دانشمندان برآمده اند. وي با اشاره به اينكه دشمنان كشور به اين نتيجه رسيده اند كه به‌كارگيري روش‌هاي مستقيم همچون تحريم ايران راه به جايي نخواهد برد افزود: ما همچنان شاهد به‌كارگيري اين سناريو در مورد دانشمندان عراقي و ديگر كشورهاي مسلمان نيز از سوي آمريكا و اسرائيل هستيم.
