Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian is set to visit Iraq on September 11 for bilateral discussions with the neighboring country's officials, Iranian media reported.

This will mark Pezeshkian’s first international visit since assuming the presidency of the Islamic Republic.

During his trip, the Iranian President is scheduled to meet with senior Iraqi officials and sign a series of agreements, including one on security cooperation.

Pezeshkian is also anticipated to visit the holy shrines in Karbala and Najaf, as well as the cities of Basra and Erbil, according to Iranian media.

Sources revealed to Al Mayadeen in August that the Iranian President's visit is in response to an invitation from his Iraqi counterpart Abdul Latif Rashid and before his scheduled visit to the United Nations headquarters in New York.

In late August, Mohammad Kazem Al-e Sadegh, Iran's Ambassador to Iraq, announced that the memoranda of understanding, originally intended to be signed by the late President Ebrahim Raisi, will now be finalized during Pezeshkian’s upcoming visit to Iraq.

Upon winning the elections in early July, Pezeshkian published an op-ed piece in the Tehran Times in which he outlined his government's outlook and policy.

In the piece, he stated that his administration is dedicated to maintaining Iran's national dignity and global standing "under all circumstances."

Pezeshkian said that his policy would focus on opportunities to maintain balanced relations with all nations in line with Iran's economic and national interests, in addition to the needs of regional and global peace and security.
