Following the first visit of Head of Iran’s Parliament National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Alaeddin Boroujerdi to Paris and a French Senate delegation to Tehran this year and the visit of Speaker of French Senate Gerard Larcher to Tehran last year, Iran’s Parliament Speaker has invited Claude Bartolone to pay an official visit to Tehran on Tuesday.

Bartolone and his accompanying delegation will meet and discuss with Iranian high-ranking officials on bilateral cooperation and transactions regariding the regional developments, terrorism, extremism, and the resolution of regional issues.
