In his meeting with Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, the supreme leader said that Iran's policy of expanding relations with Armenia will continue under the guidance of Iranian Vice President Mohammad Mokhbar.
He stressed developing relations between Iran and Armenia, saying that the relations between Iran and Armenia have oppositions, so the issues related to the two countries should be handled with more attention.
"Our late president was very sensitive to the border issues related to Armenia, and these sensitivities and cares should still be taken into account," he said.
"We should be able to secure our interests," Ayatollah Khamenei stressed.
Meanwhile, Pashinyan said, "We were shocked to hear the news of the death of the President and Minister of Foreign Affairs of Iran and his entourage in an air crash."
"We are sure that under your leadership, there will be no disturbance in Iran's affairs."
