Exchange of experience between Iran and Kuwait could yield positive results, Larijani said.

Expansion of economic relations between the two countries is of prime importance as it will bolster friendship between the two nations, he said.
On regional developments, Larijani said the current situation is very complicated as the issue of terrorism in the region has encouraged differences.
Iran believes that terrorism has registered a rapid growth in recent years, Larijani underlined.

Iran never threatens any country in the region, he underlined.
On nuclear talks, Larijani said nuclear weapons contradicts Iran's policies but the country insists on peaceful use of nuclear science.
Talks between Iran and G5+1 is serious and positive and if the two sides fail to clinch any deal, nothing will happen, he said.
Failure in talks does not mean that the world has come to an end but Iran is very positive to the results of nuclear talks, he said.
The Kuwaiti parliament speaker, for his part said, 'We should adopt a policy to prevent western media to cause panic in order to attain their goals.'
The world Muslims are now facing unprecedented and historical challenges, he said.
Iran has a very outstanding economic and geographical position in the region and it is the responsibility of the regional countries to establish relations with others, he said.
