Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian told Iranian television upon his return from Russia that all bilateral relation topics were discussed between the Iranian and Russian presidents during their meeting in Moscow.

Amir-Abdollahian added that President Putin expressed to President Raisi his condemnation for the assassination of the martyr Lieutenant-General Qassem Soleimani.

The two leaders discussed expanding trade, tourism, cultural exchange, and transportation routes between the two countries, as well as other issues such as Afghanistan, Yemen, Vienna Talks, and the fight against terrorism.
