He expressed hope that the amicable relations between Tehran and Caracas will be further expanded in future, the defense minister underlined.
The late Iranian President Ebrahim Raeisi and the late President of Venezuela Hugo Chavez were among the founders of the new chapter of relations between the two countries, so that the officials of the two countries should make their utmost efforts to further develop the bilateral relations.
