Tehran, Aug 10, IRNA - Deputy Speaker of Pakistan?s National Assembly Mortaza Javid Abbasi on Sunday called for enhanced ties with Iran.
Talking to IRNA, he noted that Iran-Pakistan relations are historical and cultural.
Iran and Pakistan enjoy good potentials for promoting economic cooperation and trade exchanges, the MP underlined.

He praised Iran?s all-out support during natural disasters in Pakistan.

After the independence of Pakistan in August 1947, Iran was the first country to internationally recognize the sovereign status of Pakistan.

At present, both countries are cooperating and forming alliances in a number of areas of mutual interest, such as fighting drug trade and Afghan-backed tribal insurgency along their border.
