Referring to the will of the leaders of Iran and Russia to strengthen bilateral relations, he said that the Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei in his meeting with Russian President, Vladimir Putin a few years ago emphasized that Iran's view of the relations between the two countries is having an independent Iran and a powerful Russia.
These two propositions form the main strategy of Iran-Russia relations, Bagheri Kani added.
He pointed out that the cooperation of the two countries within the framework of multilateral mechanisms, including BRICS, can fulfill this part of the guidelines of the Leader of the Islamic Revolution.

Bagheri stated that we need Iran and Russia to attract the cooperation of other independent countries, adding that the participation of other powers such as Brazil, South Africa, and India in this correct and logical approach can build the infrastructure of the world based on cooperation and based on justice.
He congratulated Putin on his re-election as the President of Russia, expressing hope to see the growth and promotion of comprehensive, friendly, and cooperative relations between Tehran and Moscow in the new term of the Russian presidency.
The Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs referred to the Russia-Islamic World Cooperation Summit as an important event in the field of the international economy, saying that regarding Iran's active presence in this summit, our country and specifically its embassy in Moscow and the Consulate General in Kazan with all powers and capacities are trying to remove the existing obstacles on the way to the development of cooperation and open a new window of economic relations between Tehran and Moscow.
