FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Salehi made the remarks at a meeting with foreign diplomats and local officials in the Tunisian capital Tunis on Tuesday.
“We are happy to be standing beside the Tunisian people at this critical time. On behalf of the Iranian government, I advise the Tunisians to be aware of the dangers faced by their popular 2010 revolution… enemies will make use of all their economic and political means to derail the justice-seeking movement of the Tunisian people. So it’s all up to you to determine (your) destiny and not let it get out of your hands,” he said.
Salehi added that Tunisians should rebuild their country by relying on their rich cultural and religious heritage.
He said Iran is ready to share its political, economic, and scientific experiences with the North African country, adding that the Iranian government is also prepared to welcome and pay for the treatment of injured Tunisian revolutionaries.
Earlier on Tuesday, during a meeting with Tunisian Prime Minister Hamadi Jebali, Salehi stated that Iran is keen to expand cooperation with Tunisia in various fields and to share its technological expertise with the country.
The Iranian foreign minister added that regular exchanges of visits by high-ranking officials from Iran and Tunisia can lay the foundation for the expansion of relations between the two countries.
He also attended a separate meeting with the speaker of the Tunisian Constituent Assembly, Mustafa bin Jaafar, the leader of Tunisia’s Islamic Ennahda Movement, Rashid al-Ghannushi, and Tunisian President Moncef Marzouki.
Salehi and his political and parliamentary delegation arrived in Tunisia on Monday at the invitation of his Tunisian counterpart Rafik Abdessalem.
This is the first visit by a high-ranking Iranian official to Tunisia since the fall of the country’s Western-backed dictator, Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, in 2011.
