YEREVAN, October 23. /ARKA/. Armenian-Iranian relations are at their outset, said President of the Islamic Republic of Iran Mahmoud Ahmadinejad during his meeting with student and professors of the Yerevan State University (YSU).

He appreciated sustainable bilateral relations based on the friendship, respect and mutual trust. However, bilateral relations between both countries are at their outset, as Armenian-Iranian intergovernmental relations only have 15 years of history, Ahmadinejad said.

Taking into account centuries old historic-cultural ties between both nations, Armenian-Iranian high level bilateral relations have a bright future, according to Iran’s President.

He attached importance to the development of bilateral relations in science, culture and other spheres. According to Ahmadinejad, it is necessary to develop infrastructures.

He believes scientists in both countries can share experience with each other. In this connection, he attached importance to bilateral visits of professors and students.

Iran’s President Ahmadinejad has paid a two-day official visit to Armenia. The Iranian governmental delegation composed of Vice-President Parviz Davoodi, Iran’s Defense Minister Mostapha Mohammad Najar, Acting Minister of Oil Gholamhossein Nozari and other officials.—0--
