Following the talks, Zarif said “rejection of the US decision on the holy city of al-Quds was among the issues agreed at the trilateral meeting…The three countries will also adopt a unified stance at the emergency meeting of the UN General Assembly,” which will be held on Thursday.
The three top diplomats also discussed cooperation in different economic fields, including transit, transportation, customs and technology.
