Iran�s government spokesman said on Tuesday that President Ebrahim Raisi would attend the United Nations General Assembly in September.

Ali Bahadori-Jahromi said that the preparatory planning has been done for the President�s attendance in the UN General Assembly which will open on September 13.

Asked about the issue of Iran�s share of water rights to transboundary rivers, Bahadori-Jahromi said that the administration was following up the case, as the energy minister would travel to Afghanistan to discuss Iran�s share of Helmand waters.

He noted that the Afghan side has accepted Iran�s rights, but they disagree on the amount of inflow to Iranian soils.

The spokesman also said that Iran�s share of Aras waters has been discussed at presidential level and the energy ministers of Iran and Turkey are slated to follow up the case.
