    Iran's Speaker Ali LarijaniIran's Majlis speaker has called for the
    promotion of all-out relations with Armenia, highlighting the key
    role that parliaments play in bringing the two countries closer.

    "The Iranian Parliament supports any plans to promote cooperation in
    different sectors such as political, economic, cultural and trade,"
    said Ali Larijani in a meeting with Armenian Prime Minister Tigran
    Sargsyan in Tehran on Tuesday.

    Larijani underlined the two countries have the 'political will'
    to further cement mutual relations.

    The top parliamentarian also stressed the need to fully exploit the
    existing untapped potential in trade and economy, particularly by
    strengthening the role of the private sector in both countries.

    "Bilateral economic and trade ties should expand in tandem with mutual
    political relations," the Iranian parliament speaker said.

    Larijani then referred to the recently revealed documents on
    whistleblower website Wikileaks regarding developments in Iraq and
    said, "Such revelations show the US is after adventurism in different
    parts of the world."

    "Regional countries should adopt appropriate approaches to establish
    stability and calm to serve the interests of the Iraqi people and
    prevent foreigners from creating crises," the Iranian speaker said.

    The visiting Armenian premier, in turn, highlighted that his trip
    to Iran aims to further enhance mutual relations in different areas,
    particularly economy and trade.

    He expressed hope that the private sectors of both countries would
    forge closer ties and make more investments in trade activities.
