Since 2020, the two countries have worked on expanding cooperation, especially in energy projects and oil trade amid the draconian US sanctions that they have been repeatedly subject to. This has helped both countries ease the effects of the sanctions on their economies.

In May, the National Iranian Oil Engineering and Construction Company signed a contract worth 110 million euros to repair Venezuela's smaller 146,000 barrel-per-day refinery.

After Turkey and Algeria, Maduro arrives in Iran

Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro arrived in Tehran, Friday, as part of his international tour. Accompanied by a high-ranking political and economic delegation, the Venezuelan President sought to meet his Iranian counterpart President Ibrahim Raisi. The two presidents were scheduled to chair the meetings and joint committees between the two friendly nations.

On Thursday, Maduro visited Algeria, where the media reported that "the energy file is at the top of the agenda of President Maduro's talks, with Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, and senior Algerian officials and the file of re-resurrection of the Non-Aligned Movement will be one of the most important issues raised." The purpose of the visit was to discuss energy solutions and agreements given the similar approach the countries have towards this topic.

These visits come as part of an international tour by the Venezuelan president, which started in Turkey. Throughout that visit, the Venezuelan President held talks with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, to discuss the relations between the two countries. The discussions involved the situation in the Americas after Venezuela and a handful of other anti-imperialist countries were excluded from the Summit of the Americas in the United States.
