On Sunday he met and held talks with his Iranian counterpart, Ali Naghi Khamoushi, and Deputy Foreign Minister Mehdi Safari. They discussed a wide range of issues pertaining to the development and strengthening of Russia-Iran economic and political interaction, and signed an agreement of cooperation in information exchange between the two chambers of commerce and industry.
