During a meeting with President of Islamic Republic of Iran Ebrahim Raisi in New York today on the sidelines of the 78th Session of the UN General Assembly, he underscored the close fraternal relations between the two neighboring countries.
The Prime Minister stressed that steps including the recent inauguration of the Mand-Pishin border marketplace, would not only contribute to the economic uplift of the border areas but also serve as tangible manifestation of the collective commitment to work for the betterment of the two peoples.
