Nicaragua to
Continue Diplomatic Ties With
Iran
Managua -
The Nicaraguan government will continue its
diplomatic ties with Iran and the U.S. can
not question the decision, Nicaraguan
Foreign Minister Samuel Santos said on
Monday.
"Nicaragua's diplomatic ties with Iran are
framed in law, and nobody can question
them," Santos said on private TV channel 12.
Nicaragua respects the friendship of the
U.S. with other countries, and the U.S.
needs to respect Nicaragua's, he added.
Santos made the remarks due to a statement
by U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton
last week, when she said that her government
is concerned about the Iranian presence in
Nicaragua and the rest of the Americas.
Santos said that Nicaragua's diplomatic ties
with Iran will continue moving on in order
to increase them. |
