The Azerbaijani President's Special Representative for Special Assignments, Khalaf Khalafov, met with Mehdi Sanai, adviser to the Iranian president on political affairs, APA reports, citing Tasnim.

During the meeting, Mehdi Sanai touched upon the deep friendly relations between the two states and peoples, calling mutual visits and cooperation a turning point in the development of relations.

“We hope that the problems that hinder the faster implementation of joint projects between the two countries will be resolved and these projects will be completed accurately,” Sanai said.

The Iranian official stressed the importance of deepening Iran's relations with neighboring countries, especially Azerbaijan, in accordance with the instructions of President Masoud Pezeshkian.

According to him, progress has been made in relations after the Iranian President's visit to Baku, but some issues still remain.

We are working on the implementation of the remaining agreements through mutual cooperation and the removal of existing obstacles," Khalaf Khalafov emphasized.
