Highlighting the good frameworks for the promotion of cooperation between Iran and Saudi Arabia, Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Nasser Kanaani
Iran described on Monday as bright and promising the future of economic relations with Saudi Arabia, stressing that the attitude towards Washington will not be charged until the US stops its hostile behavior.
Speaking to reporters at a weekly presser on Monday, Kanaani said Tehran and Riyadh have restored relations on the basis of a positive outlook.
He said the two states have agreed during recent meetings to broaden the economic and trade interaction on a par with the political relations, pointing to “good frameworks” in this regard.
“Our evaluation is that within the framework of the trade capacities, the vistas for the achievement of suitable conditions for the formation of economic cooperation are bright and promising as we have held negotiations at various levels,” Kanaani states, as quoted by Tasnim news agency.
The spokesman also thanked the Saudi officials for interaction with Iran during the Hajj season, hoping that the annual Muslim event would be held magnificently and lead to closer unity of the Islamic community.
Iran Attitude towards US Won’t Be Changed
On the other hand, Kanaani said Iran will not tie its foreign relations and national interests to the fate of relations with a specific country or a specific issue or case.
The attitude of Tehran towards Washington will not be charged until the Americans stop their hostile behavior towards the Iranian nation, the spokesperson stated, as reported by Mehr news agency.
The position of the Islamic Republic of Iran regarding the US is clear, Kanani said, stressing: “Regarding foreign relations, we will act in line with national interests.”
Iran’s view of the US has been formed due to its hostile behaviors, he said, adding that as long as the behavior of the US towards Iran has not changed, it is natural that the attitude of the Iranian government and people towards the American government will not change.
