Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi visited Qatar’s Emir and signed several bilateral cooperation deals which would help improve ties with other Gulf Arab states.
This is the first visit to Qatar by an Iranian president in 11 years. This meeting comes at a time when the United States and Iran hold indirect talks aimed at salvaging a 2015 nuclear deal, which Gulf states considered does not address Iran’s missile program and regional proxies.
Qatar and Iran signed 14 memoranda of understanding in the fields of aviation, trade, shipping, media, cancellation of visa requirements, electricity, standards, education and culture.
Iran said that it has expanded cooperation in the fields of the economy, energy, infrastructure, culture and food security.
