The first interparliamentary meeting of the high-level commission of Russia and Iran will be held in Volgograd 2-3 September, TASS quoted Chairman of Russian State Duma Vyacheslav Volodin as saying in a meeting with the ambassadors of Asian, African and Latin American countries.
He added that the date may be reconsidered.
The two sides agreed on the formation of this commission last year, and the composition of the commission’s members were reviewed during Volodin’s official visit to Tehran back in April.
During the April visit, Volodin and Iran’s Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani signed an MoU for the establishment of Iran-Russia joint parliamentary committee aimed at promotion of ties and cooperation between the two countries.
