Iran Urges Europe To Adopt Independent Approach For Improving Bilateral Ties

TEHRAN, Jul 23 (NNN-TASNIM) – Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman, Nasser Kanaani, said yesterday that, should Europe adopt an independent approach to its foreign policy, its relations with Tehran would improve.

He made the remarks at a weekly press conference, while commenting on the “cold” reaction of Europe and the United States, to Masoud Pezeshkian’s election as Iran’s ninth president.

Kanaani said that, Iran considered Europe an important region in its foreign relations, noting that the “cold atmosphere” pervading bilateral ties was among the consequences of Europe’s “miscalculations” about Iran or bowing to U.S. pressure.

Reacting to Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the U.S. presidential race, Kanaani said, the change of administrations in the United States was not important to Iran, emphasising that, what mattered was the U.S. “hostile policy” towards Iran.

Pezeshkian was announced as Iran’s next president on Jul 6, following his victory in a runoff against Saeed Jalili, a former chief nuclear negotiator.– NNN-TASNIM
