"None of the neighboring and west Asian countries, except the Zionist regime, is regarded as security threat to Iran," Shamkhani said on Sunday, addressing a conference on security order in West Asia in Tehran; FNA reported.
He said security and interests are integrated and intertwined concepts and their realization depends on active and contributing role of the pivotal players based on their power and status.
