Iran: Ahmadinejad to travel to Cuba an Venezuela before UN Summit


Teherán, AK. August 30, 2005. The United States will not be the first country in which Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will travel in his first foreign visit as Iran's newly elected president. Scheduled to attend the summit of the United Nations General Assembly in New York in September, Ahmadinejad will instead be making a stop in Cuba and Venezuela before heading to the United States for the UN summit, according to the Iranian news agency, Farda News.

Ahmadinejad would have been to the United States, to participate at the meeting of the UN general assembly. However, advisors to the conservative Iranian president have apparently advised him against his debut on the international scene in the country that Iran often refers to as the "Great Satan."

"Ahmadinejad on his trip to New York will be making a stop in Caracas to meeting with Hugo Chavez [the Venezuelan president] and after that to Havana to meet with [the Cuban leader] Fidel Castro," said a report on Farda News.

The 60th meeting of the UN general assembly is set to begin on 14 September.
