March 30, 2015 - 15:42 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - Iran's foreign ministry summoned Turkey's charge
d'affaires on Sunday, March 29, after Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan
accused Iran of trying to dominate the Middle East, Iranian media
reported, according to Reuters.
"We are summoning the Turkish charge d'affaires... to register
Iran's objection to Erdogan's comments and to seek a clear response,"
spokeswoman Marzieh Afkham was quoted as saying by the semi-official
Fars new agency.
Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif last week rebuffed
Erdogan's accusations and accused the Turkish president of pursuing
policies harmful to the region.
Several Iranian officials and lawmakers have called on the government
to cancel a planned visit by Erdogan next week.
Erdogan said on Monday he still planned to visit Iran.
