Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani made the remark in a
meeting with his Mexican counterpart Jorge Carlos Ramirez Marin on the
sidelines of IPU on Sunday. He referred to Trump’s comments on building a wall
across the US-Mexico border and said Trump utters so many uncanny and unusual
things.
Larijani stressed that since his presidency, Trump has
caused some disorder in the world. He evaluates every matter from a financial
angle and lacks a systematized view toward peace and stability in the world.
The Iranian official also discussed the bilateral relations
between Iran and Mexico, calling for an increase in economic cooperation. "Iran
will appreciate the contribution of Mexican companies who invest in petroleum,
gas and petrochemical industries” he added.
Iran’s Parliament speaker said the extent of economic
interactions is insufficient and called for advancement and expansion of
cooperation in industrial and business areas.
Mexico’s parliament speaker, for his part, showed
willingness to develop further economic ties and said "we have taken some steps
in this regard.”
Pointing to the idea of the wall in US-Mexico border, Carlos
said "before Trump, there were obstacles in the border between the US and
Mexico, but constructing a wall is impossible as it is very costly.”
On Sunday, Larijani also met with his Vietnamese counterpart
where he emphasized on Vietnam’s appropriate stance on international issues.
The two sides discussed enhancing bilateral interactions,
regarding which Larijani stated that "Vietnam has taken positive steps toward
development, and Iran is ready to boost economic and industrial cooperation
with Vietnam.”
Vietnam’s parliament speaker, for his part, said "Vietnam
attaches great important to its relationships with Iran and as of 2016, our
bilateral ties have increased.”
