After high-stakes trips to Beijing and Abu Dhabi aimed at rebooting diplomatic and security ties with regional neighbors, Iran Supreme National Security Council Secretary Ali Shamkhani arrived in Iraq.

The visit comes as part of efforts to enforce 'neighborliness diplomacy' strategy, as per Iranian news agency Nour News.

Shamkhani will reportedly meet the Iraqi President, Prime Minister, and Parliament Speaker during his visit, in order to sign a memorandum of understanding on border security, Mehr news agency reported.

Iraq is Iran's second economic partner, with an annual trade volume of $10 billion, and raising the level of their cooperation requires addressing some of the security challenges that plague relations between the two countries, as well as accelerating the implementation of economic agreements and providing impetus to banking cooperation.
