Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad stated that although Turkey and Iran share good relations, Tehran should be careful regarding Ankara's plan of hosting a NATO missile system on its territories.

In a meeting with a group of Kuwaiti media managers in Tehran on Tuesday, Iranian President affirmed, "Turkey is one of our brothers and close friends, but when enemies deploy a missile shield there and admit that this (deployment) is a measure against Iran, caution is necessary".

"Iran has not taken positions against any party aside from the Zionist regime and has declared since the victory of the Islamic Revolution that it wants to establish brotherly ties with all regional countries", President Ahmadinejad added..
Ahmadinejad's remarks come after Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmad Davutoglu announced that his country will be hosting NATO missile-detecting systems, at the time when it has suspended military ties with "Israel", and vowed to expel "Israeli" diplomats after the Zionist entity refused to apologize for the flotilla raid.

On the regional concern, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad indicated, "Iran is worries about its brothers in the region and when it opposes foreign presence and intervention in the region it is because foreign countries have no other means to advance their interests that creating disputes and rifts between brothers and friendly countries".
On another hand, Ahamdinejad questioned the NATO-US interventions in Afghanistan and Libya and criticized the ongoing NATO raids on Libya cities.
Iranian President noted, "It is because the more Libyan people are killed and the infrastructure of the country is destroyed [the more] this is to the advantage of crisis-hit western countries".

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad reiterated the importance of maintaining friendly and brotherly relations between regional countries, stressed that regional problems can only be restored and solved by the efforts of the regional countries.
