The president of Iran said Friday the unity and solidarity of the Muslim nations was key to their security and urged greater vigilance to foil enemy conspiracies, Press TV reported.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said "the arrogant powers" waged wars in the region with the aim of "dominating the Muslims and the Islamic states."

"The unity and solidarity of the Islamic countries would have prevented the massacre of millions of people in Iraq, Afghanistan and Palestine."

He blamed the "bullying powers" for "sowing the seeds of discord among the Islamic states."

"Vigilance, unity and cooperation of the Muslim nations will foil the enemies' conspiracies and those who sow the seeds of discord among Muslims and Islamic states are either ignorant or traitor," the president said.

According to Press TV, Ahmadinejad's remarks were a direct reference to recent attacks against civilians in northern Yemen, where he held "the enemies of Islam" responsible for the developments.
