Iran, UAE top diplomats discuss bilateral ties, key regional issues
The top diplomats of Iran and the United Arab Emirates have discussed mutual relations and the latest developments in the region.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and his Emirati counterpart Sheikh Abdullah Bin Zayed Al Nahyan met in Dubai on Sunday.
The meeting was held at the invitation of Al Nahyan as Araghchi was returning home from his first visit to China since becoming Iran's foreign minister.
The two ministers exchanged views about ways to promote relations in various fields and leading developments in the region.
During a telephone conversation on December 12, Araghchi and Al Nayhan reviewed the developments in Syria following the fall of former President Bashar al-Assad.
They strongly called for safeguarding Syria's national sovereignty and territorial integrity and stopping Israel's aggression against the country.
During his stay in Beijing, Araghchi sat down with his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi on Saturday. The two foreign ministers discussed the latest security and political developments in West Asia and agreed the region should not be a scene for “destructive” interference by external powers to promote their geopolitical goals.
Araghchi also met the new Secretary General of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) Nurlan Yermekbayev on Saturday.
