Ahmadinejad hopes for better ties with Argentina after talks

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Wednesday he hopes scheduled talks with Argentina over two bombings of Jewish targets in Buenos Aires in the 1990s will lead to better ties.

Argentina announced on Tuesday that the countries' foreign ministers will meet in New York to discuss the attacks, in which Iran is alleged to have played a role. Iran has denied any participation in the bombings. (Reuters)
