Azerbaijan, Baku, May 25 /Trend/

Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi and his Egyptian counterpart Nabil al-Arabi held a meeting in Bali, Indonesia on Wednesday, Iranian FARS news agency reported.

During the meeting which took place on the sidelines of a ministerial meeting of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM), the two diplomats conferred on ways to promote the bilateral relations between Tehran and Cairo, and stressed the need for continued consultations in this regard.

Iran severed ties with Egypt after Cairo signed the 1978 Camp David Accords with Israel and offered asylum to Iran's deposed monarch Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. Relations between the two countries have become warmer after the overthrow of Hosni Mubarak's regime in Egypt.
