"We expect Russia to react to probable changes in countries’ borders in the region and be sensitive about such matters," Amir Abdollahian told reporters in Moscow.

"It is also expected that Russia will be sensitive about the presence of the terrorists and the moves of the Zionists in the region, which are both threats against regional peace and stability," he added.

The Iranian foreign minister said that Tehran and Moscow are exchanging viewpoints on various issues of mutual interest continually and through diplomatic and telephone calls.

"The Iranian and Russian presidents had two phone talks and President Putin had sent his high ranking representative to attend President Raeisi’s inauguration ceremony in Tehran," Amir Abdollahian said.

The Foreign Minister said that this visit will have achievements aimed at taking a long and comprehensive stride forth in bilateral ties.

"Keeping in mind the status in the south Caucasus region and Afghanistan, we are going to have serious negotiations,” he said.

Amir Abdollahian said that Tehran and Moscow policies have been very close to each other during the recent years and in the field of mutual interests good, harmonized and constructive moves have been made.

“We hope this potential will be further improved in all sections to ensure regional security,” he said.

Amir Abdollahian, heading a diplomatic delegation, left Tehran for Moscow on Tuesday evening at the invitation of his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov.
