Dialog only means to restore regional, global peace: Larijani
Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani says peace and stability can be restored to the region and the entire world only through dialog and negotiations.
“The Islamic Republic of Iran’s strategy is to resolve the current issues and crises through dialog and negotiations, and stability and peace can be restored to the region and the international community only in this way,” Larijani said in a meeting with the Swedish minister for health care, public health and sport, Gabriel Wikstrom, in Tehran on Monday.
He expressed Iran’s readiness “to cooperate with European countries in this regard.”
He said double-standard policies on issues such as the fight against terrorism and the campaign against narcotics as well as human rights are among the main reasons behind the increase in problems and predicaments.
The top Iranian parliamentarian further commended the progress made in economic and industrial cooperation between Iran and Sweden, saying the two countries have great potential to develop relations in different sectors including the environment, clean energies, auto-making industry, technology, health and treatment.
Larijani stressed the importance of improving parliamentary cooperation between Iran and Swede, adding that this can help solve many of the existing problems and familiarize the two countries with each other’s stances on various regional and international developments.

Like Iran, Sweden believes that the current problems must be solved through political approaches, Wikstrom said.
