(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Mojtaba Amani said in an interview with Al-Quds Al-Arabi newspaper that,” [we] expect that the two countries' relations will be normalized after the election in Egypt” and added that the US had in the past impeded the resumption of diplomatic between the two great Muslim nations.
In 1979, Iran officially cut all ties with Egypt in response to the US-sponsored 1978 Camp David Accords, which established diplomatic relations between Egypt and the Israeli regime.
He further noted that the recent accusations by the US against Iran were partly aimed at pushing Tehran into negotiations with Washington.
Amani went on to say that the international community is used to fabricated US allegations against other countries.
He emphasized that any claim of Iran's involvement in acts of terror is without basis.
Early in October, the US Justice Department accused Iran of orchestrating a plot to assassinate the Saudi Arabian Ambassador to Washington Abdel al-Jubeir, with the help of a suspected member of a Mexican drug cartel, Mansour Arabsiar.
Iran has categorically denied Washington's allegation, saying the plot aims to divert world attention from the growing anti-Wall Street movement in the United States.
