Iran Resolved to Promote Regional Peace: President

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian expressed his administration’s determination to expand peace and security in the West Asia region and among all Islamic countries.

Pezeshkian made the remark on Monday in a meeting with Minister of Foreign Affairs of Oman Sayyid Badr bin Hamad Al Busaidi in Tehran.

The president noted that the foreign policy of Iran is based on expanding relations and strengthening cooperation with all Islamic, neighboring, and friendly countries, adding that Oman has a special place for Iran in this regard.

On the current developments in the region, he said, “It is completely unacceptable and undesirable for countries in the region and Muslim nations to have disputes among themselves while a criminal like the Zionist regime exploits this situation to harm them.”

Pezeshkian described Iran-Oman relations as long-running, cordial, and friendly, which have expanded in diverse fields and at various levels, his official website reported.

Referring to a bilateral agreement to hold a meeting of the Joint Economic Cooperation Commission in the near future, the Iranian president emphasized that good measures are underway to accelerate the implementation of past agreements and pave the way for new accords between the two countries.

The Omani minister, for his part, said the two nations have deep-rooted and historical relations based on trust and goodwill, which have been strengthened.

According to the foreign minister, Oman’s Sultan Haitham bin Tariq has a strong interest in expanding ties with Iran.

Al Busaidi also regarded Iran-Oman bilateral relations as a model of cooperation, noting that the expansion of relations with Tehran, based on mutual respect and trust, has remained an unchanged principle for Muscat.
