News - Middle East: Iranian President Ebrahim Raeisi has said that Iran and many Latin American countries share a common desire for independence and justice.

Raeisi made the remarks upon his arrival in Tehran on Friday after he wrapped up a four-day visit to the Latin American countries of Venezuela, Nicaragua and Cuba.
He said Latin America is a "strategic" region in the world with abundant natural resources and many intellectuals.
The president added that many Latin American nations have been resisting the imperialist system and fighting the current "unjust" world order for decades with the pursuit of "freedom and justice" being at the core of their efforts.
This spirit is also shared by the Islamic Revolution, Raeisi said, adding, "The foundation of the Islamic Revolution is the desire for independence, respect for the people's voice, and for justice."
