Nizamuddin Zahedi also pointed out that Tajikistan has so far registered 10 cultural heritages in the UNESCO organization and said: "Out of these, we have jointly registered four heritages with Iran.
Abdul Hossein Khosropanah, the secretary of the Supreme Council of the Cultural Revolution of Iran, also said in this ceremony:
"The common language and historical connection has caused the connection of thought and wisdom between the two Tajik and Iranian nations."
The Islamic Republic of Iran has made a great contribution in helping to strengthen the infrastructure and the development and prosperity of Tajikistan, and it has no restrictions for the development of relations and cooperation with the Republic of Tajikistan.
Iran was among the first countries to recognize the independence of Tajikistan and was the first country to open its embassy in Dushanbe.
No country has a close relationship with Tajikistan as much as the Islamic Republic of Iran, and the reason for this is the racial, historical, cultural, religious, and linguistic affinities of the nations of the two countries.
