Venezuelan Speaker Hails Iran's Resistance against Arrogant Powers

TEHRAN (FNA)- Venezuela's National Assembly Speaker Fernando Soto Rojas praised Iran's resistance against the world arrogant powers, and said Tehran sets a role model for other independent states.
Rojas made the remarks in a meeting with member of the Iranian parliament's Presiding Board Hassan Sobhaninia.

At the meeting, Rojas stressed that he attaches much importance to the revolutionary campaign and efforts of the Iranian people against the arrogant powers.

He also underlined the importance of cooperation between the two countries, specially between the Iranian and Venezuelan parliaments, and announced his readiness to travel to Tehran to meet with the Iranian officials and attend the 'International Conference on Supporting the Intifada in Palestine' in Tehran on October 1-2.

Since taking office in 2005, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has expanded Iran's cooperation with many Latin American states, including Venezuela, Bolivia and Cuba.

But the strong and rapidly growing ties between Iran and Venezuela have raised eyebrows in the US and its western allies since Tehran and Caracas have forged an alliance against the imperialist and colonialist powers and are striving hard to reinvigorate their relations with the other independent countries which pursue a line of policy independent from the US.
