Rahmon arrived in Tehran yesterday heading a high-profile delegation. He was welcomed by Iran’s Energy Minister Ali-Akbar Mehrabian on arrival at Mehrabad Airport.
The trip was organized at the official invitation of President Raisi who paid a similar visit to Tajikistan last year to meet the Tajik president and attend the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit.
