The meeting of Amirabdollahian and UAE Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation took place within the framework of the BRICS Foreign Ministers meeting in Cape Town.
Amirabdollahian is visiting Cape Town at the invitation of his South African counterpart Naledi Pandor to participate in a ministerial meeting of the BRICS which kicked off on June 2.
During his visit to the South Africa, the Iranian foreign minister is scheduled to hold talks with counterparts from countries participating in the meeting to discuss issues of mutual interests.
BRICS is an acronym for regional economies of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa.
Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister for Economic Diplomacy Mehdi Safari said earlier this week that Iran has been among the first in a group of 19 countries that have applied for membership in BRICS.
