Iran Press/ Asia: "Peace and stability can only be achieved with the help and cooperation of regional countries," Ahmadian said during his meeting with Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan on Thursday. "The presence of extraregional and foreign forces complicates political and security equations and does not contribute to resolving regional issues."
According to the Supreme National Security Council's statement, Ahmadian highlighted the depth of historical and social ties between Iran and Armenia, expressing Iran's readiness to share its expertise in various fields, including industry, agriculture, nanotechnology, and biotechnology.
Both leaders underscored the importance of elevating bilateral political, economic, and defense relations. They expressed satisfaction with the progress of their cooperation and reaffirmed their commitment to further strengthening these ties.
Prime Minister Pashinyan expressed Armenia's interest in greater collaboration within the framework of the North-South Corridor and leveraging its potential for economic and strategic benefit. He also paid tribute to the late Iranian President Martyr Rajaei and reiterated the commitment to achieving the previously agreed target of $3 billion in bilateral trade.
Additionally, the two sides discussed new areas of cooperation, particularly in constructing refineries and petrochemical facilities, signaling a broadening of their partnership in strategic sectors.
This meeting reflects a shared vision of fostering regional peace, enhancing mutual economic growth, and deepening bilateral ties in multiple fields.
