Pezeshkian: The MoUs signed today represent a new start for cooperation between the two countries
“We agreed to form a team of experts from both countries to develop long-term strategic plans that establish close cooperation to exploit available opportunities. To achieve this goal, we need to activate agreements between the two countries,” Pezeshkian, who is visiting Iraq, said in a press conference with Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani.
He added: “We need to conclude security agreements in order to cooperate with each other to combat ISIS terrorism and smuggling. The agreements concluded so far have achieved good results, and we need to diagnose the weak points of these agreements.”
The Iranian president said: “We want a strong, stable, secure and independent Iraq, and in the presence of a secure and prosperous Iraq, we will be able to build fraternal relations between the two countries.”
Regarding his visit, Pezeshkian said that it “represents a great opportunity, and based on what was agreed upon, the two parties will hold specialized meetings to continue concluding new agreements.”
