Iranian Minister of Defense Brigadier General Aziz Nasirzadeh arrived in Belarus late Tuesday for high-level talks aimed at strengthening defense collaboration and expanding bilateral cooperation.

Upon landing in Minsk, Nasirzadeh received an official welcome from senior Belarusian officials, reflecting the significance both nations place on the visit. His schedule includes meetings with top military and civilian leaders to discuss key areas of mutual interest, including defense partnerships and technology transfers.

The visit comes amid a broader effort by Tehran and Minsk to deepen military and technological cooperation. Belarus, an ally of Russia, has sought closer defense ties with Iran as both nations face Western sanctions and geopolitical challenges. Discussions are expected to focus on joint defense initiatives, arms development, and strategies for countering shared security threats.
