Officials in Tehran have announced that Iran is close to restoring full diplomatic relations with Egypt.

Iran's Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki said that the relationship was "going ahead in a natural way".

The countries have not had full diplomatic ties since the Iranian Islamic revolution in 1979.

The announcement follows a recent thaw in relations, including a landmark phone call between presidents Mubarak and Ahmadinejad last week.



Just a week after Bush was there? Mission accomplished.
