He must know that he was an international outlaw," said Ali Larijani during a visit to the city of Shiraz in southern Iran, ISNA news agency was quoted as saying.
"America show that deserves a medal action international crime ... Obama must know that we do not need a message, what we need is to trust the words he put it," he said.
Larijani made the statement a day after the U.S. leader told the BBC Persian language service that the door for diplomacy with Iran is still open in connection with a longstanding nuclear dispute with the "international community".
"Our strong option is to resolve all these issues diplomatically. I think it was the interests of Iran. I think it is the interests of` international community ', "he said.
"I think it is still possible, but it would require a change in the pattern of thinking within the Iranian government," he said.
When asked whether she supports or opposes the Iranian people in their struggle for greater independence, Obama said Washington supports the democratic aspirations.
"The answer is for those who aspire for their voices heard, to participate in a democracy that recognizes the sovereignty of them as people - we will always support them," he said.
Relations between Tehran and Washington have been growing since President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's murky start position in 2005, and in connection with his actions continue Iran's nuclear program, which is controversial.
