Leader favors expansion of interaction between Iran, Russia: Pezeshkian
Earlier in the day, he and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin had signed a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership Agreement for long-term cooperation between the countries.
Speaking at a joint press conference following the signing event, Pezeshkian said the agreement would open a new chapter in relations between the two nations in all arenas, notably in the economic sector.
“This document, which has been drawn up based on the two countries’ interests, can chart the path of cooperation between Iran and Russia with a bright horizon,” he added.
Pezeshkian emphasized the imperative nature of the operationalization of the deal, hailing it for heralding “a new chapter in the countries’ relations.”
The president also predicted that the relations would expand even further during the upcoming Caspian Sea summit.
Putin approved a proposal forwarded by the country’s foreign ministry for signing the agreement last September through a decree.
