Tehran calls for accelerating implementation of agreements with Pakistan

Tehran calls for accelerating implementation of agreements with Pakistan
Irani's President Ebrahim Raisi has called for speeding up the implementation of trade agreements between Iran and Pakistan, saying the two countries are resolute on expanding relations.

In a Sunday meeting with Pakistan's Chief of the Army General Asim Munir in Tehran, Raisi underlined the development of border markets and energy cooperation between the two neighbors.

"Accelerating the implementation of bilateral agreements will promote economic and commercial cooperation between Iran and Pakistan. As a result, we will see improvement in political relations," the Iranian chief executive said.

Raeisi warned of plots by adversaries to tarnish ties among regional countries. The Iranian president placed a premium on employing the existing opportunities in the region and exchanging capacities in order to cement regional stability.

The Pakistani army chief, for his part, hailed Iran's policy of expanding interaction with the neighboring countries, Pakistan in particular.

Pointing to the long border between Iran and Pakistan, General Munir said ramping up economic, commercial and trade exchanges can culminate in a more secure neighborhood. The general said that Tehran and Islamabad have reached agreements on boosting security along with the border.

While in Tehran, Munir has also held separate meetings with the Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Major General Mohammad Baqeri, and the Chief Commander of Irans Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Major General Hossein Salami.
