Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif and visiting Japanese PM’s Envoy Masahiko Komura have discussed issues of mutual interest, particularly the North Korea developments, in a meeting in Tehran.
An Iranian lawmaker says Tehran is principally against any nuke test by any country, including North Korea, but Pyongyang’s test of nuclear weapons is a response to the US threatening behaviour in the Far East.
Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani has underlined the necessity of concerted efforts by the international community to combat extremism, adding that terrorists have nothing to do with Islam.
