Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi called Tuesday Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan once again, congratulated him on his victory in Turkey's most recent presidential elections, and underscored the importance of the regional countries' shared interests.

Raisi, during the phone call, reaffirmed that cooperation will guarantee the interests of regional countries hoping that economic, political, security, cultural, and commercial relations between Tehran and Ankara will further grow during Erdogan's renewed administration.

According to Raisi, Iranian-Turkish cooperation has played a significant role in fostering an atmosphere of stability and security across the region and stressed the importance of accelerating this cooperation between the two nations.

On his part, Erdogan voiced his optimism regarding future cooperation agreements with Tehran insisting that Turkey will continue to cooperate with Iran in various fields.

The Turkish President expressed Ankara's desire to further regional cooperation making reference to the quadrilateral cooperation of Turkey, Iran, Syria, and Russia.

"We are determined to continue regional cooperation with more seriousness, including cooperation in the quadripartite framework," said Erdogan.

The increased quadrilateral cooperation, Erdogan explained, will emerge more effective results that will proceed to strengthen and deepen regional ties inevitably expanding economic and commercial cooperation.
