イランのシーード・エブラヒム・ライシ大統領が明日インドネシアを訪問

JAKARTA - The Iranian Embassy in Jakarta said Iranian President Seyed Ebrahim Raisi would visit Indonesia for two days at the official invitation of Indonesian President Joko Widodo on May 23-24.

"During this state visit, there will be exchanges of views and talks between high-level delegates of the two countries," the Iranian Embassy said, quoted by ANTARA, Monday, May 22.

"The two countries will also sign various cooperation documents in various sectors such as energy, pharmaceutical and health products, food products, customs cooperation, bilateral trade facilitation, IPTEK, and culture," the Iranian Embassy continued.

While in Indonesia, Raisi will also meet with the chairman of the DPR and the chairman of the MPR, scholars, thinkers, lecturers and students as well as business actors in Indonesia.

Iran considers Indonesia to have a common culture and civilization with them, apart from having a significant capacity in cooperation in various fields, especially when changes are hitting the international political system.

Indonesia is considered to have a special position by the Islamic Republic of Iran, especially its geographical location at the heart of international transportation and trade routes in East Asia and ASEAN countries.
