Iranian FM says has welcomed Iraqi PM offer for talks with Egypt

Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian says that at the Baghdad II Conference in Jordan, the Iraqi prime minister offered him talks between Iran and Egypt at political and security levels.

Amirabdollahian added that he welcomed the offer.

The Iranian foreign minister also said Mohammed Al Sudani is supposed to take some actions within the next few weeks to that end.

Amirabdollahian maintained that this offer is in line with Iraq’s regional role to strengthen dialog and cooperation.

The Baghdad II Conference in Amman happened several days ago.
