TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iranian foreign minister and Armenia’s prime
minister in a meeting explored avenues for the expansion of all-out
ties between Tehran and Yerevan, specially the economic relations.
Iran’s top diplomat Mohammad Javad Zarif held a meeting with visiting
Armenian Prime Minister Hovik Abrahamyan in Tehran on Monday.
The two officials discussed the ways on how to enhance Tehran-Yerevan
relations in the sphere of economy, commerce, infrastructure and
tourism.
Moreover, they both emphasized the necessity for the removal of
obstacles to the promotion of all-out ties between the two neighboring
countries.
Zarif and Abrahamyan also called for the continuation of reciprocal
visits by the two counties’ officials and further interaction on the
issues of mutual interest.
Iran and Armenia have always enjoyed amicable relations in a whole
host of fields.
Back in May, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani highlighted the expansion
of trade ties with Armenia, saying the two countries’ private sectors
can contribute to broadening of economic cooperation between Tehran
and Yerevan.
