国际英语新闻:Iranian FM to visit India for talks on ties

2018-05-28来源:Xinhuanet

TEHRAN, May 27 (Xinhua) -- Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif will embark on a visit to India on Sunday for talks on bilateral ties, official IRNA news agency reported.

Zarif will head a political and economic delegation seeking to expand comprehensive ties between the two countries, Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesman Bahram Qasemi told IRNA.

During the stay in India, the Iranian foreign minister will meet his Indian counterpart and some other senior officials to review the latest regional and global developments.

In February, Iran's President Hassan Rouhani visited New Delhi while nine agreements were signed to expand bilateral economic ties.

The two countries have friendly relations and significant trade ties in many areas, particularly in crude oil imports into India and diesel exports to Iran.

Iran is the second largest supplier of crude oil to India, supplying more than 425,000 barrels of oil per day, and India is one of the foreign investors in Iran's oil and gas industry.
