Iranian, Iraqi speakers discuss parliamentary ties, regional developments
TEHRAN (FNA)- Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani and his Iraqi counterpart Salim al-Jabouri in a meeting in Baghdad on Wednesday conferred on bilateral ties and regional developments.


During the meeting in the Iraqi capital today, Larijani and Jabouri underlined the need for the further expansion of mutual cooperation between the two countries' parliaments.

Larijani is on a regional tour of Syria, Lebanon and Iraq. He started his tri-nation tour on Sunday.

He arrived in Baghdad on Wednesday morning to confer on the latest developments in the region following a visit to the holy city of Najaf where he met with Iraq-based Muslim religious leader Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani.

Iran and Iraq have enjoyed growing ties ever since the overthrow of the former Iraqi dictator, Saddam Hussein, during the 2003 US invasion of the Muslim country.
