Red carpet welcome for Ahmadinejad

Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (C) waves after he visited the Al-Hussein mosque, named after Prophet Mohammed's grandson Hussein ibn Ali, in old Cairo Feb 5, 2013. Ahmadinejad was both kissed and scolded on Tuesday when he began the first visit to Egypt by an Iranian president since Tehran's 1979 Islamic revolution. The trip was meant to underline a thaw in relations since Egyptians elected an Islamist head of state, President Mohamed Mursi, last June. But it also highlighted deep theological and geopolitical differences.[Photo/Agencies]
