Magtymguly Pyragy is was an Iranian Turkmen poet whose mausoleum is located in northern Iran near the border of Turkmenistan. The poet has a special status among Iran’s Turkmen minority and also among the people of Turkmenistan.
The literary legacy of Magtymguly Pyragy is regarded as a cultural commonality between the two countries, Baghaei wrote.
Pezeshkian's trip to Turkmenistan aligns with Iran's ongoing cultural diplomacy, he noted.
During his visit to Ashgabat, the Iranian president separately held talks with his Russian, Turkmen, and Uzbek counterparts.
