Analyst welcomes move of developing ties with Iran

ISLAMABAD: Prominent political analyst Malik Zahoor Ahmad strongly welcomes move to develop ties with Iran.

Talking to media, he strongly welcomed move of present government to build ties with regional countries, especially with Iran.

He said President Zardari has taken a right step by developing bilateral relations with Iran.

He added Saudi Arabia is greatly concerned with our ties with Iran and the move is also defiance against the United States, as the country does not like our good ties with our neighbouring countries.

Malik Zahoor Ahmad said the United States has suspended our military aid and the country wants to prolong its stay in region by establishing its bases in the region, which will be a continuous threat not only for Pakistan but also for Iran.
