Top Iranian, Egyptian Officials Discuss Bilateral, Regional Issues

A senior Iranian advisor has held a meeting with the head of the Egyptian Interest Section in Tehran.

Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, the special aide to the Iranian Parliament speaker for international affairs, sat down on Tuesday with head of the Egyptian Interest Section in Tehran Yasser Osman.

During the meeting, the two sides discussed regional questions as well as key issues of mutual interest regarding bilateral parliamentary ties.

According to a Farsi report by ICANA, the latest regional developments also came up for discussion during the meeting.

Iran and Egypt have held no diplomatic ties since 1980 when Cairo offered asylum to the former shah, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, and maintained peace treaties with Israel.

However, in recent years Tehran has voiced its preparedness to restore its relations with Cairo in case a set of conditions are prepared in both capitals.
