TEHRAN (Tasnim) - Speaker of the National Assembly of the Republic
of Armenia Galust Sahakyan plans to pay an official visit to Iran
later this month.
Heading a high-ranking parliamentary delegation, Sahakyan will visit
Tehran at the invitation of Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani.
During his visit to Iran, the Armenian speaker is scheduled to hold
talks with Larijani and a number of senior officials on a whole
host of issues, particularly ways to promote bilateral relations in
diverse areas.
Late in January, Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif had
paid an official visit to Yerevan to discuss issues of mutual interest.
Zarif noted that Armenia's membership to the Eurasian Economic Union
(EEU) provides good opportunity for enhancement of cooperation between
Tehran and Yerevan.
On January 2, Armenia officially joined EEU, a Moscow-led union
including Russia, Kazakhstan and Belarus, seemingly formed to
counterbalance the European Union.
