Iran outlines its plan for the region

Iran's Foreign Minister Larijani told a conference in Dubai,

"The security and stability of the region needs to be attained and we should do it inside the region, not through bringing in foreign forces...."

"We don't accept the relationship between the U.S. and the countries of the region," Larijani said. "If you talk to Arab leaders here, you can sense that they aren't happy with the current situation. They feel the Americans are bullies. They don't want the U.S. ambassador ordering them around."

Certainly, the Sunni governments in the region would not be happy with this Iran tilting shift in regional forces, the Saudis have said as much in their statements about US forces in Iraq, but, I'm curious whether this Larijani statement was aimed more at the people of the region than their governments.

For instance, the Saudi government wants the US to stay in Iraq to prevent it becoming an Iranian client, but I wonder whether the increasingly anti-American Arab street feels the same way.

Are these statements aimed at creating pressure on the Sunni governments of the region?
