"Colonialist powers seeking to block progress of independent countries: Haddad-Adel"

TEHRAN – “In the current situation, the colonialist countries have focused all their efforts on preventing the development of independent countries,” Iranian Majlis Speaker Gholam-Ali Haddad-Adel said in Caracas on Tuesday, underlining the fact that the West intends to trample upon Iran’s right to access peaceful nuclear technology.

Haddad-Adel, who is currently in the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela heading a high-ranking delegation, told members of the Venezuelan Parliament that in recent years, the Iranian nation and officials have eagerly followed developments in the friendly country of Venezuela because the fate of these two revolutionary countries is intertwined, and this has led to closer relations between the two nations.

Underlining the fact that bilateral relations between Iran and Venezuela have been promoted, Hadad-Adel expressed hope that the two nations would soon witness the fruition of their efforts in all political, economic, and cultural spheres.
