19:28 04/06/2013 " REGION
We should expand our economic ties with Armenia, Iranian presidential
candidate, Supreme Leader's foreign policy adviser Ali Akbar Velayati
was quoted as saying by ISNA.
The presidential candidate spoke about Iran's foreign policy at a
meeting with reporters on Tuesday, saying in part: "It is not right
that ten visits are made to Latin America yearly while our neighbors
are disregarded. Of our 15 neighbors, 13 are Islamic countries. Iran
has much in common with Armenia and Russia in terms of history and
therefore it should further develop bilateral relations with these
countries. We should not rest on political relations but should also
strengthen our economic ties."
