TEHRAN, Jul. 25 (MNA) – In a tweet on Saturday, the spokesperson of the Iranian foreign ministry announced that the Islamic Republic is aimed at maintaining its longstanding, balanced, and friendly relations with all Eurasian and East Asian powers.

"Iran has a longstanding policy of maintaining balanced, friendly relations w/ all Eurasian & E/S Asian powers," Abbas Mousavi tweeted.  

"Our potential longterm cooperation agreements w/ China & Russia, & our continued joint work w/ India in Chabahar prove this. We are determined to uphold this policy," he added.

Since Iran is located in the Middle East region, the spread of peace, security, stability, and progress of the region is of paramount importance for the Islamic Republic.
