Official: Almost 8,000 Diplomats to Attend NAM Summit in Tehran
TEHRAN (FNA)- The upcoming summit of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) will be the most superb international meeting in Iran in recent years, a senior Iranian foreign ministry official said, and added that almost 8,000 foreign diplomats will visit Iran during the summit later this month.




Speaking to FNA, Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Consular, Parliamentary and Expatriates' Affairs Hassan Qashqavi said that so far 30 heads of state have announced their readiness to attend the NAM summit in Tehran.

"It seems that the summit will be the most superb meeting of the recent years in our country. The foreign states' massive preparations for attending the event prove that I am right," Qashqavi added.

The official further stressed that the summit in Tehran will show that Iran is not isolated as claimed by some western countries.

The 16th NAM summit will be held in Tehran from August 26 to 31.

Iran will assume the rotating presidency of the movement from Egypt for three years during the upcoming summit.

NAM is comprised of some 120 member states and 17 observer countries.

NAM is an international organization of states considering themselves not formally aligned with or against any major power bloc. NAM is the largest grouping of countries outside of the United Nations.

NAM member states represent nearly two-thirds of the United Nations' members and comprise 55% of the world population, particularly countries considered to be developing.
according to the media they have like..two allies..

The united states does not have official relations with iran but that says nothing about unofficial relations.

For example, if you go up embassy row (where most of the DC embassies are) iran does not have an embassy, which you would expect. Guess where the 'iranian interest section' (the semi-official cultural focus for iranian-americans in DC) is though?

By the same token we have at times had to contact iran for one reason or another, like incidents where our citizens have been captured by them (yes, it occasionally happens). We go to one of our allies that has relations with them and they negotiate for us. It is the political version of 'can you tell so-and-so this because we are not talking to each other'.
