The administration of Iranian President Hassan Rouhani has been seeking to expand bilateral economic cooperation with European countries.
In December 2013, Rouhani expressed Irans readiness to promote relations with Italy to the highest level possible.
The current relations between Iran and Italy do not meet the expectations of both nations; and the existing potentials of both countries must be used to expand ties, Rouhani said in a meeting with Italian Foreign Minister Emma Bonino in Tehran.
He added that Italy has been an important partner for the Islamic Republic of Iran, adding that helping Italy meet its energy demands has always been a top priority in Tehran-Rome ties.
