According to the Russian Embassy in Tehran, Russia's Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Rybakov arrived in Tehran today and met with his Iranian counterpart Abbas Araghchi.
The two deputy foreign ministers discussed various issues of mutual interest and called for continuation of consultations between the two sides in the future.
The visit came almost two months after Abbas Araghchi visited Moscow and held talks with Rybakov on the future of Iran nuclear deal also known as Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), following the US' unilateral withdrawal from the agreement.
Prior to the visit of the Iranian deputy foreign minister to Moscow in June, Rybakov had visited Iran two days after the United States Donald Trump announced his country's withdrawal from the JCPOA on May 8.
