TEHRAN (FNA)- Armenian Ambassador to Tehran Grigor Arakelyan urged
Tehran and Yerevan to further broaden their relations in different
areas.
Arakelyan made the call in a meeting with Chairman of the Iranian
Parliament's National Security and Foreign Relations Commission
Alaeddin Boroujerdi in Tehran on Thursday.
"I hope that during the presidency of Iranian President-elect Hassan
Rouhani, Iran and Armenia will further expand their relations in all
fields," the Armenian ambassador said.
In recent years, Iran and its Northern neighbor Armenia have boosted
cooperation, signed agreements on energy cooperation and agreed to
cooperate in technology and research and to enhance ties in commerce
and economy.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and his Armenian counterpart
pledged in December 2011 to further expand "high-level relations"
between their nations and, in particular, give new impetus to the
implementation of joint energy projects that have fallen behind
schedule.
In early October, Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi and his
Armenian counterpart Edward Nalbandian met at the UN Headquarters
in New York to discuss bilateral ties and regional and international
issues.
