[translated from Persian]
[Newsreader] The friendly relations between Iran and Armenia will
expand in line with developments in the region. The president [Mahmud
Ahmadinezhad ], at a meeting with the Armenian foreign minister,
called for a three-fold increase in bilateral ties [as heard]. Mr
Ahmadinezhad said that there is no limit, on Tehran's part, for the
expansion of all-out ties with Yerevan in various political, economic
and cultural fields.
Edvard Nalbandyan, for his part, submitted a written message from the
Armenian president and reported a 38 per cent increase in the volume
of commercial exchanges between Tehran and Yerevan which have reached
close to 270m dollars per year.
The Armenian foreign minister also met Mr Salehi. Mr Salehi told Mr
Nalbandyan, Iran is ready to have bilateral cooperation with Armenia
in political, economic and cultural fields, and multilateral and
regional cooperation in the fields of energy and transport.
[Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi, briefing off-screen reporters]
Today, it was decided that these meetings between the two countries'
foreign ministers will increase. There were issues relating to
bilateral ties that were discussed. There were also issues relating to
regional developments, especially in neighbouring countries. These
issues too were seriously discussed, especially the issue relating to
a radar - the radar system that is to be established in Turkey. This
is a cause for concern for the Islamic Republic of Iran, as well as
for many neighbouring countries.
