Iran, Iraq to expand scientific ties
IRNA Iranian Minister of Science, Research and Technology Mansour Gholami called for cooperation and professor exchange to increase scientific collaborations in a meeting with his Iraqi counterpart Qusai Soheil on Saturday.

'The collaborations are rooted in the cultural, Islamic and historical interests of the countries,' said Gholami.

Expressing readiness to increase cooperation, Gholami said, 'The cooperation the two countries have is not enough.'

'There are no official joint researches between Iran and Iraq.'
