For his part, the Iranian envoy pointed to March 18 which is the 27th anniversary of establishing diplomatic ties between the two countries, noting that the presidency of Belarus over the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) can be a suitable ground for increasing bilateral cooperation.
“During the meeting, the sides discussed a number of issues of Belarusian-Iranian cooperation in trade, economic, cultural and humanitarian areas, as well as the political and epidemiological situation in the world,” reads a statement by the Belarusian Foreign Ministry about the meeting.
