01 April 2011 [12:08] - TODAY.AZ
Iranian speaker said U.S ex-president George Bush  and incumbent President Barak Obama  follow the same policy and there is not any difference between them, Mehr News Agency reported.

Iranian speaker Ali Larijani urged that the approach of the U.S against uprising demonstrations in Middle East and North Africa demonstrate its biased position.

Larijani said the final goal of the U.S is gripping the energy resources in region. Meanwhile, the U.S has been silent watching against Bahrainis shiite bloody protests. "So, determining its biased position is not difficult."

Massive protests have been conducted and riots have taken place in the countries of the Middle East and North Africa over the past few months. As a result, the power changed in Egypt and Tunisia. Currently, riots continue in Yemen, Bahrain and Libya. Algeria, Iraq, Morocco, Jordan and Oman have faced with protests. Several Arab countries claim Iran's interference in the events in Bahrain, where the majority of the population is composed of Shiites.

Last week, Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi criticized foreign meddling in Bahrain saying that "the presence of foreign forces in Bahrain under illusionary pretext would not be helpful, it would further complicate the situation."
