When asked about President Obama, Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki made it clear that Bush's ideals hurt America's image overseas by responding that "Mr. Obama should distinguish and introduce its differences with -- its policies with President Bush and which aspect he has differences with President Bush.
