NAIROBI — Washington admires the reformist opposition to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who was sworn in for a second term Wednesday following a contested poll, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said.
"We appreciate and we admire the continuing resistance and ongoing efforts by the reformers to make the changes that the Iranian people deserve," Clinton told reporters in Kenya, where she kicked off a seven-nation Africa tour.
Iran's 52-year-old president took the oath of office for another four years at a ceremony in parliament after his landslide election victory in June that triggered the worst turmoil since the founding of the Islamic republic.
