Iranian Minister: Israel Intimidated by Egyptian Nation's Demands
TEHRAN , April 24 (FNA)- Iranian Culture Minister Seyed Mohammad Hosseini warned that the Zionist regime of Israel is attempting to derail popular uprisings and revolutions in the region because it is deeply fearful of the demands raised by the Egyptian nation in their recent revolution.
"The Zionist regime is upset and feels much concerned about the materialization of the Egyptian people's demands and is witnessing the Islamic Awakening in the region hopelessly," Hosseini said in a meeting with his Egyptian counterpart Imad Abu Ghazi in Algeria, but meantime added that the Israeli regime "is making its utmost efforts to derail the noble move of the people".
Also during the meeting, Abu Ghazi referred to the developments in the region, and underlined the necessity for the regional people to keep further vigilant.
He further pointed out that following the recent developments in his country, there is no obstacle on the way of sending humanitarian aids to Gaza via Egypt.
He also underlined eagerness of the new Egyptian government to expand cultural relations with Iran, reminding that the move would provide the ground for the consolidation of the political relations between the two countries.
After the collapse of Hosni Mubarak's regime, the Iranian and Egyptian officials voiced their interest in the resumption of diplomatic relations between the two countries and Iranian top diplomat Ali Akbar Salehi officially invited Egypt's newly appointed Foreign Minister Nabil al-Arabi to pay a visit to Tehran.
The invitation letter was submitted to the Egyptian foreign minister during a meeting between Director of Iran's Interest Section in Cairo Mojtaba Amani and al-Arabi.
Egyptian daily, al-Ahram quoted the spokesman of the Egyptian foreign ministry as saying that Salehi in his message had lauded the recently uttered positive remarks by al-Arabi about the promotion of bilateral ties with Iran.
Al-Arabi in his first press conference earlier this year announced Cairo's preparedness to open "a new page with Iran".
The official went on to say that the Egyptian government does not see Iran as an enemy state, noting the two countries have historically rooted relations.
He further stated that establishment of diplomatic ties depends on the Iranian side.
In reply, Salehi also said that Iran is ready to resume relations with Cairo.
