TEHRAN (FNA)- Iranian First Vice-President Mohammad Reza Rahimi in
a message congratulated Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan on
his reappointment.
In his message, Rahimi referred to the age-old relations between the
two countries, and expressed hope for the expansion of ties between
Iran and Armenia in all fields.
Iran has long taken various diplomatic initiatives to expand its ties
with the neighboring states.
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 Eduard Nalbandian met at the UN Headquarters
in New York to discuss bilateral ties and regional and international
issues.
