Zia Hashimi, Managing Director of the Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA), on Thursday during a meeting with the South Korean President, noted the heightened relations between the two countries after the presidency of Moon Jae In flourished in economic, political, and cultural perspectives, but after Donald Trump came to power in the US, the ties between Iran and Korea were also affected.
