TEHRAN (FNA) Iranian embassy in Ankara reacted angrily to an article last month by British Foreign Secretary David Miliband in the Turkish daily Zaman which argued the need to keep up the pressure on Iran over its nuclear activities.

TEHRAN (FNA) Iran’s nuclear program and the multi-billion dollar gas pipeline project involving three countries, including India, were among the issues that figured in talks Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki had with his Pakistani counterpart Inam-ul Haque in Islamabad on Friday.
