Ahmadinejad: Iran, Qatar geared to expand regional, int'l coop

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad blasted certain western countries for their attempts to bring the region into a state of havoc and insecurity to sow discord among regional countries.

"The Westerners do not want prevalence and rule of security over the region and (they don't want) friendly relations among the regional countries," Ahmadinejad said in a meeting with Qatari Crown Prince Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad bin Khalifa Al-Thani who arrived in Tehran on Tuesday.

"They (the western countries) have always made attempts to keep the regional countries weak. Thus, their (the western countries') life depends on discord and insecurity (in the region)," he added.

Ahmadinejad further underlined that he was pleased to see that Tehran and Doha share a common understanding of the enemies' conspiracies in the region.

Referring to the two countries' cooperation potentials specially on the international scene, he stressed, "Enemies aim to spread war in the whole region in a bid to resolve their economic and political problems "and this requires us to side with each other more than before."

The Iranian president also hailed the truthfulness and vigilance of the Qatari officials in facing enemy plots in the region.

The Qatari crown prince, for his part, described Iran as a brotherly country and "our strategic power in the region".

He also stressed the necessity for the expansion and deepening of the two countries' constructive cooperation on regional issues.
