    Iran and Armenia have underscored their determination to further
    strengthen bilateral relations, particularly in the parliamentary
    sphere.

    On Sunday, Iranian Ambassador to Yerevan Mohammad Raeisi met with
    newly-elected Armenian Parliament Speaker Galust Sahakian to discuss
    Tehran-Yerevan ties as well as issues of mutual interest.

    During the meeting, Raeisi highlighted the importance of closer mutual
    cooperation between Iran and Armenia, saying the officials of both
    countries see no obstacles in the way of boosting bilateral ties.

    The Iranian official expressed confidence that the upcoming visit by
    Sahakian to Iran would help further promote bilateral and parliamentary
    relations.

    Sahakian, for his part, said Tehran and Yerevan enjoy high-level ties,
    adding that mutual trust can increase bilateral cooperation.

    He highlighted the significance of joint economic projects between
    Iran and Armenia, saying the implementation of these projects would
    raise the level of mutual economic ties.

    The Armenian parliament speaker expressed hope that he would meet
    his Iranian counterpart in the near future.

    Iran and Armenia have taken major strides toward promoting their
    bilateral relations over the recent years, particularly in the
    economic sector.

    According to Iran's commercial attache in Armenia Hamaiak Avadis Yanes,
    the trade turnover between the two neighboring countries totaled USD
    293 million in 2013.
