TEHRAN – It makes no real difference to Iran whether US President George W. Bush or Democrat contender John Kerry wins the presidential elections, a senior Iranian official said Tuesday.

“It makes no difference for us which of the two parties wins the elections,” Iran’s top national security official Hassan Rowhani said in an interview on state television.

“We have not seen any good coming from the Democrats, so we won’t be happy if the Democrats win,” he said.

“Also we should not forget that most sanctions and economic pressures were imposed on Iran during Clinton’s administration,” Rowhani added, referring to former president Bill Clinton.

The official said a victory in next month’s elections for Bush and the Republicans would also not have much impact on the Islamic republic, arch-foe of the United States.

“We are not afraid of the US even if the Republicans win since, at least in the region, they had found out that aggression and bullying will only result in their interests being threatened,” he added.

Bush seeks to take Iran to the UN Security Council over charges that Tehran is seeking nuclear technology for military purposes, while Kerry has proposed supplying Iran with fuel in exchange for an end to its own nuclear fuel cycle work.
