Referring to the agreements signed during his visit, Ahmadinejad said that the two countries are determined to promote mutual ties.
“During the friendly talks, the Islamic Republic of Iran and Tajikistan announced their interest in boosting ties in the fields of transportation, energy, culture, and trade,” he added.
“I suggested establishing a joint Persian language TV network for Iran, Tajikistan, and Afghanistan which will be discussed in tripartite talks on Wednesday,” Ahmadinejad said.
“I also proposed setting up joint schools, exchanging university students, and jointly publishing books which were welcomed by the Tajik side.”
Rakhmonov said that Tajikistan is ready to step up its cooperation with Iran in all areas.
