Tehran, March 25, IRNA – President Hassan Rouhani left Tehran for Islamabad this morning on a two-day official visit to Pakistan in which the two sides will sign several documents on bilateral cooperation.
The president was officially seen off at Mehrabad Airport by Ali Akbar Velayati, senior advisor to the Supreme Leader, Vice President Is’haq Jahangiri, and some other cabinet ministers before leaving.
The president’s trip is a response to a visit to Tehran by Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif in January.
Developing bilateral relations, especially in economic areas after the nuclear deal and lifting of sanctions, is among the most important issues to be discussed between the two sides.
