Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said during a military ceremony Saturday in Tehran that no country would dare to attack Iran.

"With Iran's military might, the enemies would not dare anymore to even threaten Iran," Ahmadinejad said on National Army Day in Tehran.

The president's comments came after renewed speculation that the new Israeli government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would attack Iran to stop its alleged efforts to create an atomic bomb.

Referring to nuclear development, Ahmadinejad said Iran has become a regional power and would not give in to intimidation as far its rights and interests were concerned.

"The world should know that Iran is a nation of principles and even uses its military might for the sake of regional peace and stability," monstersandcritics.com cited Ahmadinejad as saying.
