Iran-Armenia ties are at the highest level, Armenian Ambassador to Iran Grigor Arakelyan said at a meeting with Managing Director of Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA) Majid Omidi-Shahraki, according to IRNA.
The Armenian envoy pointed to cultural commonalities between the two countries.
Armenia has always adopted stance close to that of Iran, he noted.
The ambassador also called for meeting between chiefs of the two countries’ news agencies, saying that such meetings will help expand bilateral media cooperation.
Majid Omidi-Shahraki, for his part, said that Tehran-Yerevan ties have improved in recent years more than before given the volume of economic and commercial exchanges.
The Armenians have always lived in desirable conditions in Iran and Iran’s government considers itself duty-bound to defend their rights, he said.
