In a meeting with influential figures from the United States Muslim community, the president said, “We are in need of unity among Muslims in the current situation, both in minor issues and in the principles.”

Dr.Rouhani added that after foreign intervention, the main problems facing the Muslim World and the sensitive region of the Middle East are extremism, violence and terrorism, fostered sometimes under the name of religion and Jihad.
