Ebrahim Raisi added that in his presser efforts have been made in this regard to stop the bombing; however, due to the support of the US and the West to the Zionist regime, we are still witnessing the killing of women, children, and innocent people.
Raisi added: "We believe that victory will belong to Palestine and destruction will be the fate of the Zionist regime. In this trip, the issue of cutting the vital arteries of the Zionist regime will be discussed, he noted.
He pointed out that the field of Iran-Turkey relations is considerable and in line with the neighborhood policy and relations with Islamic countries, and Turkey is considered optimal for the development of bilateral relations.
Stating that we hope our bilateral, regional, and extra-regional cooperation with Turkey will develop during this trip, the President said: "We hope that the issues discussed in Erdogan's previous visit to Tehran will be followed up in this trip."
Following a terrorist incident in the southeast city of Kerman on January 3 that claimed the lives of 94 people and injured 211 more, the president of Iran called off his scheduled trip to Turkey.
