Iranian foreign minister arrives in Doha for talks with high-ranking Qatari officials
Iran's Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian has arrived in Doha to discuss bilateral relations as well as major regional and international developments with high-ranking Qatari officials.
Amir-Abdollahian left Tehran for Qatar’s capital late Monday on an official invitation from his counterpart, Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani, who is also the prime minister of Qatar.
During his visit, Iran's top diplomat is accompanied by a delegation consisting of the foreign minister’s assistants, a member of the Iranian Parliament’s Committee on Foreign Policy and National Security, and the Foreign Ministry’s spokesman, Nasser Kan'ani.
His visit to Qatar follows a similar trip to Doha last week by Governor of the Central Bank of Iran Mohammad Reza Farzin. During his trip, Iran's top banker discussed ways of bolstering the two countries’ monetary, banking and economic cooperation with Qatari officials.
Amir-Abdollahian is scheduled to visit Oman’s capital city of Muscat following his talks in Qatar.
In an early Tuesday tweet, the Iranian foreign minister said his visits to Qatar and Oman are aimed at further promoting relations with those countries and following up on the agreements reached by the three countries' high-ranking officials.
استمرار توسعه‌ی همه‌جانبه روابط با همسایگان یکی از محورهای بنیادی در دکترین سیاست خارجی متوازن دولت است.
— H.Amirabdollahian امیرعبداللهیان (@Amirabdolahian) June 19, 2023
همسایگان ایران از ظرفیت اقتصادی، تجاری و سیاسی پراهمیتی بهره‌مند هستند.
در راستای بسط بیشتر روابط و پیگیری مصوبات سفرهای دوجانبه قبلی مقامات عالی، امروز عازم قطر و عمان شدم.
He noted that Iran's neighboring countries enjoy huge economic, trade and political potentialities.
Amir-Abdollahian added that continued development of all-out relations with neighbors is among basic principles of the Iranian administration’s foreign policy doctrine.
Earlier in June, the foreign ministers of Iran and Qatar had discussed a wide range of issues from improving relations to the latest regional developments in a telephone conversation.
Since its inauguration, Iranian President Ebrahim Raeisi’s administration has been diligently pursuing a good-neighborliness policy to cement ties with the nations in the region.
During Raeisi’s visit to Doha in February 2022, Iran and Qatar inked 14 major economic cooperation agreements, including a deal on cancelling visa requirements for passengers traveling between the two countries.
