Leading a top-ranking economic and opolitical delegation, the Azerbaijani President Aliyev entered the Iranian capital on Sunday morning.

The visiting official is slated to meet and talks with his Iranian counterpart President Hassan Rouhani as well as a number of other high-ranking authorities of Iran.

As a northern neighbor, Azerbaijan enjoys good relations with the Islamic Republic of Iran.
