On Sunday, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei received Ghanaian President John Dramani Mahama who heads a delegation to Tehran. Leader said that hegemonic powers always had actively opposed cordiality between Iran and African countries; however, Iran had a positive view of the African countries and welcomed relations with them; “they [hegemonic powers] are the major source of terrorism, regional conflict, and have fed extremism to destabilize the region; we provide the generally feasible alternative of unity of ‘independent nations' to improve mutual ties; imperialist powers see their interests in fueling tensions in different parts of the world; terrorist factions in Africa are the mercenaries fostered by UK, the US, and the Zionist regime,” emphasized the Leader.
