Holding talks on ways to send humanitarian aid to Palestine and help the Palestinians fulfill their legitimate rights will be among the plans during the Moscow visit, the president underlined.

In recent years, Tehran and Moscow have taken good steps towards strengthening bilateral ties and serving the regional interests, according to president’s remarks at Mehrabad airport in western Tehran.
As he stressed, Iran and Russia follow regional peace and stability as they enjoy common attitude towards the regional and extra-regional issues.
