Rouhani made the remarks in a press conference in the presence of over 300 domestic and foreign reporters in Tehran on Monday.

A few governments did not act well and few others did the minimum, but generally 'we got along with the nuclear dossier with success', IRNA quoted him as saying.

To remove the remaining sanctions, 'we need the will of the nation' and guidance of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic revolution to help us accomplish the task, Rouhani said.

Sanctions were wrong and unfair as they set against principles of human society and will be to the loss of all, the president-elect added.

Since 'we believe these sanctions were wrong', therefore 'we are ready' to resist against them, he said.

The eleventh government is ready to help remove them and hope the needed rgrounds would be prepared, Rouhani added.
