Raeisi officially welcomes Cuban counterpart in Tehran

TEHRAN, Dec. 04 (MNA) – Iranian President Ebrahim Raeisi welcomed his Cuban counterpart Miguel Díaz-Canel in Tehran on Monday morning.

The welcoming ceremony was held at the Saadabad cultural complex in northern Tehran.

The Cuban President arrived in Tehran in a bid to hold talks with the Iranian high-ranking officials on the issues of mutual interest.

Upon arrival at Mehrabad airport in western Tehran late on Sunday, the Cuban president was welcomed by Iranian Minister of Health Bahram Eynollahi.

Holding private talks, attending joint meetings between the two sides’ delegations, signing several agreements on cooperation, and participating in the joint press briefing are among the plans of the Cuban president in Tehran.

Today's visit of Miguel Díaz-Canel to Tehran is the first after the travel of the late Cuban president Fidel Castro to Iran about 23 years ago.

In a related development, President Raeisi visited Cuba on a regional tour to the Latin American countries about six months ago. The visit of an Iranian president to Cuba took place after 12 years.
