This is an elderly statesman, who has relinquished power and who has biased and prejudiced views. But, he seems to be unable to accept the fact that he is no longer the ruling leader or the spokesman of the country. He still likes to make statements and comments on all sort of things. However, he lacks objectivity and fairness. As a result, his views are not taken seriously.
An example is his call for the boycott of US goods because of Isreal's invasion of the Palestinian controlled Gaza Strip. True, the Isreal aggression is cruel and brutal. But, he made no mention of the rockets fired at Isreal from the Gaza Strip. Also, his economic deliberations are no very sound. Hence, a lot of people, including the ruling leaders, don't agree with him.
Over the years, he has rattled a lot of biased and prejudiced views. Internationally, he is recognized more as a loose cannon than a credible statesman. As such, not much is taken for what he says.
