He said the participants will also discuss the security and political consequences of these developments for regional trends, try to reach a better understanding of the ongoing trends and work out ways of boosting regional cooperation in order to establish peace, security, stability and welfare for people in the region.

The delegates will also exchange view on the roles of regional and international players in bringing stability or instability as well as on the wide range of dynamic processes, namely political, security economic and social trends.

As announced by the spokesman, the event features speeches by senior political figures from the regional countries, including Iran, as well as a number of heads of domestic, regional and international research centres and think thanks, who will exchange views in three specialized panels.
