The Iranian representative affirmed that Tehran and Baghdad maintain close coordination based on historical, religious, and shared interests. According to Iran, this relationship is not merely diplomatic but a strategic, deep, and enduring bond that withstands the test of time.
For its part, Iraq’s officials expressed consistency in their foreign policy, viewing Iran as a top regional partner. Both sides committed to increasing high-level exchanges, expanding bilateral trade, and closely coordinating on regional and international issues of mutual concern.
