Iran invited Egypt’s new President Mohamed Morsi on Thursday to attend the next Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) summit in the Iranian capital, Tehran, Press TV reported.

The 16th NAM summit will be held in Tehran on August 26-31.

Iran broke off ties with Egypt after Cairo signed the 1978 Camp David Accords and offered asylum to Iran's deposed monarch Mohammad Reza Pahlavi.

At the summit, Iran will receive the NAM’s rotating presidency for three years.

An international organization with some 120 member states and 17 observer countries, NAM represents nearly two-thirds of the UN members.
