“It is very important for us to look for new formats of cooperation, to deepen interaction within the framework of parliamentary communications,” said Vyacheslav Volodin. He invited Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf to take part in the Conference of Speakers of the Parliaments on Countering Terrorism and Strengthening Regional Connectivity, which is planned to be held in April.

“I very much hope that we will be able to give effect to the will of our leaders in bilateral, multilateral cooperation and in the implementation of our strategic interaction,” emphasized Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf.
