    Stable and comprehensive Tehran-Yerevan ties guarantee regional
    security and tranquility, Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani
    states.

    In a meeting with visiting Armenian National Security Council Secretary
    General Artur Baghdasaryan in Tehran on Monday, Ali Larijani expressed
    satisfaction over growing bilateral relations. He also pointed to
    common areas of interest as well as deep bonds between Iran and
    Armenia.

    'Broad based relations between Iran and Armenia are rooted in
    historical bonds between the two nations. Such enduring and all-out
    ties secure security and stability in the region," Larijani said. He
    noted that great steps have been taken in recent years with respect
    to improvement of Tehran-Yerevan relations.

    Baghdasaryan, for his part, labeled Armenia-Iran relations as
    'strategic', stressing that the expansion of political, economic,
    trade and infrastructural ties with Tehran comes as one of the foremost
    goals of Yerevan's foreign policy.

    He underscored that Iran's policy is to support peace and stability
    in the Caucasus and prevent further conflicts in the region. "Iran
    plays an effective and constructive role in establishing security
    and stability in the region."

    The Armenian official arrived in Tehran on Sunday and is accompanied
    by Deputy Armenian Foreign Minister Gegham Gharibjanyan, deputies
    of the National assembly Hovhannes Margaryan and Sukias Avetisyan as
