Glad to \\’hear\\’ that President Sleiman and his team will be present at this important Event in Tehran. Also it is rather timely for Iran take the on the Presidency of NAM for the next 3 years. On the contrary to the believe of some Western countries, I think that IRAN has a great potential to be a major player for the Peaceprocess in the Middle East.
