Majid Nassirayi said on Saturday that a current Iranian administrative government led by President Ebrahim Raisi has sought to change the way Iran has interacted culturally with its neighbors and other countries.
Nassirayi said the previous administration was mostly focused on the West.
“Today we are witnessing a change in (Iran’s) foreign policy which is aimed at creating a balance in international relations,” he said.
The Iranian member of parliament made the comments after he traveled to Tajikistan to accompany a senior delegation of Iranian government officials visiting the country.
The Iranian delegation, led by Minister of Culture and Islamic Guidance Mohammad Mehdi Esmaeili, attended various events and gatherings in Tajikistan to mark a seventh round of Iran’s cultural weeks in the Central Asian country beginning on October 9.
Tajikistan’s culture minister Zulfiya Davlatzoda said earlier this week that Dushanbe plans to immediately implement a series of cultural agreements signed by senior government officials of Iran and Tajikistan during the trip.
