Saeed Jalili made the remarks during a meeting with the head of Turkey-Palestine parliamentary friendship group, Murat Yildirim, in Tehran on Monday.
He also attached high significance to the campaign against the Zionist regime and said that it is the first priority of the Muslim world.
Commenting on the regional developments and the wave of Islamic awakening rolling across the Middle East and North Africa region, Jalili said that this awakening movement has tilted the balance of power in favor of the Muslim world.
Jalili went on to say that the first fruits of the Islamic awakening should be the strengthening of the resistance against the Zionist regime.
He also warned Muslim nations around the world about the conspiracies of Islam’s enemies and said they are seeking to overshadow the opportunities of the Muslim people.
All opportunities provided by the Islamic awakening should be utilized in the campaign against the Israeli regime and the arrogant policies of the United States.
In the meeting, Murat Yildirim called for the expansion of ties between Tehran and Ankara and said, “We will not let the foreigners utilize Turkey’s potential against the Islamic republic.”
During an earlier meeting with Murat Yildirim on Monday, Iranian MP Alaeddin Boroujerdi said that the prospects of cooperation between the Islamic Republic and Turkey in all spheres are promising.
Boroujerdi, who is the chairman of the Majlis National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, said that the Islamic republic and Turkey together can play a major role in the region and help resolve the current problems though using their broad capabilities.
Murat Yildirim also met with Iranian Majlis speaker Ali Larijani late on Monday and discussed various issues including Tehran-Ankara parliamentary relations.
