Russian Deputy Defense Minister Alexander Fomin held talks with the commander of the Iranian Ground Forces Kiyumars Heydari, the Russian military department reported. During the talks, issues of bilateral military cooperation between Moscow and Tehran were discussed.
“There was an exchange of views on issues of bilateral security. The parties confirmed their intention to deepen the dialogue and increase the level of development of contacts in the defense sphere,” the press service of the Russian Defense Ministry said (quote from Interfax). Whether any agreements were reached as a result of the negotiations is not specified.
Mr. Heidari arrived to Moscow for talks with representatives of the Russian military command on 21 August. He has already managed to negotiate with the Commander-in-Chief of the RF Ground Forces Oleg Salyukov. In the near future, as part of a visit to Moscow, Mr. Heidari and other members of the Iranian delegation will visit enterprises of the Russian military-industrial complex.
Kiyumars Heydari is not the only high-ranking Iranian military man who has recently come to visit Russia. So, last week at the Army-2023 forum in the Moscow region came Iranian Chief of Staff Aziz Nasirzade.
