IRNA - Swedish Prime Minister, Stefan L�fven, who is due to visit Tehran next month, says Iran is a very important actor in the region.


In an interview with IRNA in London, Kjell Stefan L�fven, a Swedish politician who has been the Prime Minister of Sweden since 2014 and the Leader of the Social Democrats since 2012, said, 'We have an interest to develop the business relations between Iran and Sweden.'

He said, 'I was invited by the president and I am very happy. Iran is a very important actor in the region.
