Iran, Syria FMs stress need to implement newly-reached agreements

Tehran, IRNA – The foreign ministers of Iran and Syria have stressed the need to implement bilateral agreements that were reached during President Ebrahim Raisi’s “successful” visit to Syria last month.

In a phone conversation on Saturday, Hossein Amirabdollahian and his Syrian counterpart, Faisal Mekdad, pointed to the positive outcomes of President Raisi's visit and expressed their resolve to implement the recently-inked deals.

Heading a high-ranking delegation, Raisi visited Syria last month on an official invitation from President Bashar al-Assad.

During his visit, Tehran and Damascus signed an agreement on “long-term strategic comprehensive cooperation” between the two nations. They also signed 14 other documents to boost cooperation in various areas.

During the phone call, Amir-Abdollahian also congratulated Damascus on its recent political achievements and pointed to the restoration of relations between Syria and other Arab countries while describing the development as “positive” and “constructive”.

Mekdad, for his part, expounded on those developments and described President Bashar al-Assad’s presence at an Arab League summit in Saudi Arabia last month as positive.
