The Iranian president also laid emphasis on the development of bilateral ties in light of Iran and Nicaragua’s “extensive capacities” in the political, economic, and social areas.

Ortega, for his part, likewise demanded expansion of the relations in various fields.

"The approach of foreign policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran is to improve relations with Latin American countries and also countries in the Caribbean region, Nicaragua in particular," President Rayeesi said during the Phone conversation.

He reiterated the need for cooperation in the international forums to foil sanctions imposed by the United States.

"The common view of two nations of Iran and Nicaragua in the face of US excessive demands is a valuable asset for the interaction and convergence in international arena in order to defend national sovereignty of independent countries and nations," President Rayeesi added.

The Nicaraguan president, for his part, said that his country will fully continue to strengthen and develop relations with the Islamic Republic of Iran.

"Today, United States has overtly targeted Latin American countries, he said, adding that the US government has also targeted the unity and amity established between the two countries of Iran and Nicaragua, so that it is very important to maintain unity and strengthen solidarity between the two nations," he added.
