DOZENS of Arab leaders and scholars traveled to Iran for the third edition of the Iranian-Arab Dialogue Conference as participating countries sought a more united Arab and Muslim world in the light of shifting geopolitics.
Foreign ambassadors, experts, and guests from 15 Arab countries shared insights with their Iranian counterparts on various global issues that concern the Arabic and Islamic world such as the Palestine-Israel conflict and the emerging world order.
Iran’s Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian stressed the significance of interaction and dialog in resolving differences and promoting mutual understanding among countries in the region.
The Iranian foreign minister pointed out that the United States’ continuous support for Israel proves how Washington’s so-called democracy and human rights campaign is fake and deceptive.
Amir-Abdollahian said Iran is willing to expand ties with more Arab and Muslim countries.
He also hailed Iran’s warming ties with Saudi Arabia and announced plans to resolve differences with Egypt.
The third Iranian-Arab Dialogue Conference was held in the capital Tehran from May 12 to 14.
China played a crucial role in mediating peace talks between Saudi Arabia and Iran last year. The Islamic Republic showed a willingness to go beyond regional talks and focus more on regional cooperation.
