Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi told Serbian Parliament Speaker Vladimir Orlic that Tehran will remain consistent in respect of Serbia’s territorial integrity and sovereignty.

A parliament press release quoted Raisi as saying that Serbia can count on Iran’s support on all important issues. Orlic is on a two-day visit to Iran. Orlic is quoted as saying that the two countries are linked by true friendship which is proved by Iran’s principled stand not to recognize Kosovo. Raisi said Tehran will remain consistent on the Kosovo issue.

Orlic and Raisi confirmed readiness to promote cooperation in all areas in which they have a common interest primarily the economy, the press release said. It added that Orlic also met with his Iranian counterpart Muhammad Bagher Ghalibaf.
