The Urmia Lake floating bridge is a sign of Iranian experts’ ability to launch and complete complicated projects, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said. The bridge fulfils the “historical dream” of the people living to the east and west of the lake, who have long sought a shorter transport route, the president said. The president expressed appreciation to all the experts involved in the project for their efforts to eliminate all the obstacles in the path. Ahmadinejad noted that the project was only 25 percent complete when he took office. He also said Iran should make full use of all its domestic capabilities. |
