Ahmadian arrived at Baghdad’s International Airport on Monday morning and was welcomed by Iraqi officials.
He is set to meet senior Iraqi officials including Prime Minister Mohammed Shia' Al Sudani and National Security Advisor Qassim al-Araji, according to local media.
An informed source told Iraq’s 964 Channel that the top Iranian security official, during his daylong trip to Baghdad, would discuss the ongoing developments in Iraq and the region.
This is the first trip of Ahmadian to the Arab country since he was appointed secretary of Iran’s top security body in June 2023.
His visit comes three days after the US struck positions of resistance groups in Iraq and neighboring Syria in retaliation for the death of three American forces in a drone strike in Jordan on January 28.
Tehran, Baghdad and Damascus condemned the US strikes as a violation of national sovereignty of Iraq and Syria.
