| 2008-09-02 |
| Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad told Bolivia's visiting left-wing President Evo Morales on Monday their two nations are natural allies and would boost energy ties, state media reported. "The two revolutionary nations and the governments of Iran and Bolivia are natural allies and will boost their relations in the fields of commerce, industry, agriculture, gas, oil and politics," he told Morales on the first day of a two-day trip to Tehran. "We are striding on a common path towards a brighter future and will remain by each other's side and supportive of one another under any circumstances," he said, quoted by the state-run television news website. The website also quoted Morales, whose country sits on South America's second largest gas reserves, as saying he supports Ahmadinejad. "I support and praise Mr Ahmadinejad's stance against imperialism and defending the rights of the Iranian people," he said." I also hail Iranian progress in industry and agriculture." |
