BEIRUT (REUTERS) - Iran's President Hassan Rouhani said on Wednesday (Nov 9) that the US election results would have no effect on Teheran's policies, state news agency IRNA quoted him as saying, noting that Iran's expanding economic ties with the world were irreversible.

"The results of the US election have no effect on the policies of the Islamic Republic of Iran," Rouhani said.

"Iran's policy for constructive engagement with the world and the lifting of nuclear-related sanctions have made our economic relations with all countries expanding and irreversible."

He added that Iran's nuclear deal with six world powers has been reflected in a United Nation Security Council resolution and cannot be dismissed by one government.
