TEHRAN, Iran — Hassan Rouhani, a moderate cleric, was sworn in yesterday as Iran's new president, officially ending the controversial eight-year, two-term presidency of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
Rouhani, who won a landslide victory in the June 14 presidential elections, used his first speech as Iranian president to send a message to the United States and its Western allies, who have imposed severe economic sanctions on Iran over its disputed nuclear program.
"The only way to interact with Iran is to have dialogue from an equal position, creating mutual trust and respect and reducing enmities," Rouhani said. "Let me state it clearly that if you want a positive response, talk to Iran not with a language of sanctions, but a language of respect."
White House press secretary Jay Carney congratulated Rouhani and said his inauguration "presents an opportunity for Iran to act quickly to resolve the international community's deep concerns over Iran's nuclear program."
