HAVANA
Iran's foreign minister has begun a Latin American tour in Cuba, saying
the two countries are united by histories of resisting what he called
U.S. atrocities.

Mohammad Javad Zarif said Monday that Iran "has always shown that we can
win through resistance."

He said Cuba's communist-run government had similarly endured in the
face of the half-century-old U.S. trade embargo.

Zarif also plans to visit Nicaragua, Ecuador, Chile, Bolivia and
Venezuela. The Iranian government says it is trying to firm up ties with
Latin America in the face of what it calls plots by Israel to undermine
relations. Zarif did not mention Cuba's reestablishment of diplomatic
relations with the U.S.
