Ukraine’s First Vice-Prime Minister, Stepan Kubiv, who is also the country’s Minister of Economic Development and Trade, held talks with Iran’s Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif in Tehran.
During the Saturday meeting, Zarif stated that Ukraine is one of Iran’s old friends and the two countries have to work together to remove barriers to boosting bilateral relations.
“We need to take major steps in the field of banking relations,” Zarif added.
The Iranian foreign minister also referred to the meeting of Tehran-Kiev Joint Commission, and described it as an appropriate measure to develop ties.
In turn, the Ukrainian official said he is pleased to take part in the inauguration ceremony of President Rouhani.
