Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki in a meeting with the Cuban Minister for Government and Head of Iran-Cuba Commission Ricardo Cabrisas said that given the close relations between the governments and nations of both countries, there are hopes that continuous exchange of views will strengthen mutual ties.

A report released by the Foreign Ministry Media Department on Saturday, quoting Mottaki, said that given the common interests of the two states, cooperation in uncovering the political nature of global hegemony in various regions will be achieved through promoting common goals and strategies.

Mottaki added that flourishing of the allied forces in Latin America has strengthened the positions of pioneering nations and Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) member states.

Expounding on the capacities of Iran and Cuba to cooperate in Latin America, Africa and the international scene, he pointed out that the two countries have many potentials in the economic fields and common political strategies in the global arenas.

Dismissing the incorrect US policies on Afghanistan and Iraq, he said that what is witnessed daily in these two countries reflects the increasing concern of the public opinion of both states about the US and their hatred towards them.

"The US considers that it has the right to impose sanctions on third world countries on account of their peaceful nuclear technology.

The US regime intends to impose scientific apartheid against Iran," concluded Mottaki.

For his part, Cabrisas briefed the foreign minister on his country's policy in supporting Iran and said that Cuban leaders and nation always support the position of Iran's government with regard to its nuclear activities for peaceful purposes.

The minister expressed satisfaction over further cooperation in the domains of transportation and agriculture and said that the common projects currently being worked out are satisfactory.

Cabrisas called for taking further measures to strengthen bilateral relations to the interest of both sides.
