Manmohan Singh arrives in Tehran for NAM summit
On the sidelines of the summit of 120 non-aligned nations, Singh will also hold meetings with the Iranian leadership, including Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and will review bilateral relations. Singh's bilateral meetings with Khamenei and Ahmadinejad assume significance as they will take place at a time when the US is pushing India to reduce engagement with Iran and implement sanctions imposed by some countries over its controversial nuclear programme. He will also hold meetings with Zardari and Egypt's first civilian President, Mohammed Mursi.
