Iran's speaker praises N Korea Iran's parliament speaker has admired North Korea for its anti-US stance. He has also said that Washington's pressure on Pyongyang over its testing of nuclear weapons would not affect the communist country. The comments by speaker Gholam Ali Haddad Adel came in talks on Thursday with his North Korean counterpart, Che Tai Buk, who is in Tehran for a gathering of the Association of Asian Parliaments for Peace. "The Democratic People's Republic of Korea enjoys special respect by the Iranian people because of its resistance against the arrogant policies of the United States," Adel said. "As long as a government has support from its people, pressures and sanctions by the US will not have any affect," he said. Both countries are locked in diplomatic standoffs with the West over their nuclear programmes. The United Nations imposed sanctions on North Korea after it conducted its weapons test last month. The United States and Europe are pressing for tough sanctions on Iran for its refusal to suspend its uranium enrichment programme, which they believe is part of a secret drive to develop weapons. Iran insists its nuclear programme is peaceful and has shrugged off threats of sanctions, insisting that eventually the West will have to agree to negotiate with it over its nuclear programme. Its ally, Russia, has opposed tough punishment for Iran, calling for a negotiated solution.
