Iran’s FM underscores enhancing economic cooperation with China
Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian says it is imperative that Iran and China enhance relations in various sectors, not least economy.
The Iranian minister was meeting with Ali Mohammadi, the new consul general of the Islamic Republic to the Chinese city of Shanghai, on Sunday ahead of the diplomat’s departure.
Relations between Tehran and Shanghai and East China go back a long time, Amir-Abdollahian said.
The Iranian minister placed a premium on cementing interactions between Iran’s private sector and Chinese partners by making use of the capacity of Iranians living overseas.
Mohammadi previously served as Iran's consul general to the Indian city of Mumbai and the Russian city of Astrakhan. He has also been an assistant to the director general of economic coordination in the Foreign Ministry.
On Sunday, the top Iranian diplomat also received Iran's new consul general to the Pakistani city of Peshawar Ali Banafsheh Khah. He has previously served as Iran's consul general to South Korea, New Zealand and Austria.
Amir-Abdollahian said Iran and Pakistan need to enhance cooperation with a focus on Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province in line with the Islamic Republic's good-neighborliness policy.
