In a letter to Prime Minister of Thailand Prayut Chan-o-cha on Saturday, President Rouhani, on behalf of the Iranian government and nation, expressed condolences to the Thai people and royal family on the passing of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej.

“The Islamic Republic of Iran always regards Kingdom of Thailand as an age-old friend and partner and hopes to see the expansion of bilateral relations in all fields,” the president added.
