Bahram Ghasemi noted that the French Foreign Minister heading a high-ranking political delegation accompanied by representatives from economic enterprises is scheduled for an official visit to Iran on Monday evening.
“Foreign ministers of Iran and France will convene a joint economic and trade commission’s meeting on Tuesday,” Ghasemi said, adding that taking part in the economic commission’s meeting is among the main programs of Ayrault’s visit to Tehran.
There is the possibility that the two sides sign a number of documents at the end of the meeting, he added.
According to Ghasemi, Ayrault is slated for talks with Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, President Hassan Rouhani, Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani and a number of other officials.
Ayrault is accompanied by representatives from 60 French companies, directors of Middles East and African affairs at Foreign Ministry, managers of entrepreneurship and international economic institutions, officials in charge of Iranian affairs at Foreign Ministry, heads of Department of Treasury Office, and a number of governmental officials and media persons.
