Friend and Ally Update from IRNA (thanks to Twostellas):
Saudi Minister of Health Hamad bin Abdullah al-Manea said here Sunday Iranian progress in various fields of science, education and research is a matter of honor for the Islamic world.
Al-Manea made the remark in a meeting with Iran’s Ambassador to Saudi Arabia Mohammad Hosseini.
Iranians have always played a leading role in global civilization, he said.
He added Saudi Arabia approves Iran’s peaceful nuclear activities, adding it is surprising that the Zionist regime has stockpiles of nuclear warheads, without any protest from the international circles.
The minister called for broad cooperation with Iran on medicine, exchange of medical experts and use of capability on hydrotherapy.
Hosseini, for his part, said senior officials of the two countries have a strong resolve to expand bilateral relations, adding, “Tehran and Riyadh enjoy enormous potentials for bolstering bilateral relations.”…
“The Islamic Republic of Iran is ready to transfer its valuable experience in various medical fields to Saudi Arabia,” the envoy stated.
