Bazrpash also met and held talks with Ioannis Sarmas, the President of the Greek Court of Audit (the supreme financial court of Greece).

Referring to the long history of the two countries and the historical similarities between Iran and Greece, Bazrpash called for bringing the two countries closer than before.

"The internal structure of the Islamic Republic of Iran is more powerful than the enemies can even guess," he stressed.

Calling for developing Iran-Greece cooperation ties, the Sarmas expressed hope the areas of cooperation between the two Iranian and Greek courts will develop more and more in all fields.
