Tehran:
In the rapidly changing world structure, Iran and India must stay
together and should not neglect the present opportunities to replace
the “dying” big powers, Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad told
visiting External Affairs Minister S. M. Krishna on Tuesday.
Krishna, who was here representing India at the meeting of G-15
developing nations, met Ahmadinejad and the two leaders highlighted
the need for the two nations to work together on regional issues.
“The two leaders talked about situation in the region,” an External
Affairs Ministry spokesman said and described the near 30-minute
meeting as “warm and cordial interaction“.
“It (Af-Pak situation) was briefly mentioned... The two leaders
touched upon the situation in the region,” he said.
The Iranian President wanted the two nations to be in touch on
regional issues, the spokesperson said.
“Referring to regional situation, the President underlined the
desirability (and) need for India and Iran to be in touch (and) to
work together,” he said.
Ahmadinejad told Krishna that Iran and India should stay together
for three reasons namely because of their cultural characteristics
and the common historical records, the present situation in the
region as well as the contemporary world conditions which call for
close cooperation between the two countries, official IRNA agency
said.
“He (Ahmadinejad) also underlined the rapidly changing world
structure and said Iran and India should not neglect the present
opportunities to replace the dying big powers,” it said. The Iranian
President was apparently referring to the U.S. and other western
countries.
The fiery Iranian leader believed closer ties between Iran and India
will benefit other countries as well because Tehran and New Delhi
have always sought peace and security for both the region and the
world, the agency said.
The Indian spokesman said: “India has always played an important
role in global affairs including NAM and G-15 organisations.”
Krishna also conveyed the greetings of President Pratibha Patil and
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to the President, and to the
leadership and people of Iran.
“External Affairs Minister congratulated the President and the
Iranian Government for the very successful hosting and conduct of
the G-15 Summit and excellent arrangements made,” the spokesperson
said.
Recalling India’s civilisational links with Iran, Krishna noted that
the two nations were neighbours (before India’s partition) and have
always been good friends.
Ahmadinejad warmly welcomed the External Affairs Minister and echoed
his sentiments, saying India and Iran had joint roots.
He also expressed satisfaction that the Indo-Iran Joint Commission
would take place shortly which would “give impetus to cooperative
and multi-faceted ties“.
The last Joint Commission meeting was held about 18 months ago here
and the next meeting is planned in New Delhi.
Iran, he said, was happy to see India’s economic development and
progress which was good for the region.
The President requested Krishna to convey his greeting to the
President and the Prime Minister of India.
Krishna thanked the President of Iran for receiving him warmly.
The External Affairs Minister was assisted by Indian Ambassador to
Iran Sanjay Singh, Joint Secretary (Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran) in
the Foreign Office Yash Sinha and other officials, while the Iranian
team, comprised Deputy Foreign Minister Mohammad Ali Fathollahi and
Director General of Asian Affiars among others.
Krishna had on Monday met his counterpart Manouchehr Mottaki and
discussed bilateral relations and trade ties.
