President of Iran Ebrahim Raisi held talks with Azerbaijani Minister of Foreign Affairs Jeyhun Bayramov as part of the meeting in the “3+3” format in Tehran on October 23.
The Iranian president expressed hope that the discussions in the "3+3" format will become a source for strengthening constructive regional cooperation.
"Improving relations with friendly and fraternal Azerbaijan is one of the priorities of Iran's foreign policy. Iran, as one of the countries in the region, respects the territorial integrity and sovereignty of all countries and focuses on resolving issues through dialogue," Raisi said.
At the meeting, Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov noted that Azerbaijan attaches special importance to relations with Iran. He noted that Azerbaijan supports Iran's position regarding the prevention of interference in the region by countries located outside the region.
"In this regard, holding a meeting in Tehran in the "3+3" format is assessed as useful, positive, and constructive. In recent months, significant progress has been made in improving relations between the two countries," Bayramov said.
