“Following a phone conversation between the Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi and the Chairman of Libyan National Transitional Council (NTC) Mustafa Mohammed Abdul Jalil, our ambassador returned to Iran’s embassy in Libya, and resumed his activities,”said Mehmanparast in a meeting with Iranian officials.

As to new excuses of the US and its western supporters on hindering Iran’s nuclear progress, Mehmanparast noted, “Despite western countries’ conspiracies and disagreements, Iran’s nuclear drive follows its normal routine.”

Iranian foreign ministry spokesman said the Middle Eastern and North African developments and the willingness of the people in the region affected by the Islamic awakening and the Islamic Revolution of Iran would disrupt the US and Zionist regime’s exchanges.

He criticized the West’s double standards in dealing with developments in different regional countries and questioned their intention of military presence in one country and silence on crack-down of the popular movements in countries such as Libya and Bahrain.
