Iran-Armenia-Mottaki

Iran’s Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki will pay a visit to Armenia
late this week, a senior official at the ministry said here Sunday.

Foreign Ministry spokesman Mohammad-Ali Hosseini made the statement
while speaking to reporters at his weekly press briefing.

He pointed to Mottaki’s two-hour visit to Bahrain on Saturday and said
it was a pre-scheduled trip which took place upon an invitation by the
Bahraini foreign minister.

"During the visit, Mottaki held good meetings with the Bahraini foreign
minister and crown prince," he added.

The spokesman said the meeting of Iran-Bahrain Joint Economic
Commission would be held after the holy month of Ramazan (October 12).

He added media groups of the two countries would visit Tehran and
Manama.

Hosseini pointed to Mottaki’s recent visit to Tunisia and said the
Tunisian president once again invited his Iranian counterpart Mahmoud
Ahmadinejad to visit Tunis.
