Iraq PM Ali al-Zaidi visits Iran after Washington trip amid regional tensions

Iraq’s newly appointed Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi is in Tehran for his first official visit to Iran since taking office. Al-Zaidi held talks with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian at the Sa’dabad Palace, with discussions focused on regional security, trade and energy supplies. The visit comes days after Iraq’s prime minister made his first official trip to the United States. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says the visit is not part of any mediation effort between Tehran and Washington. Araghchi says al-Zaidi is simply sharing his own views and impressions from his US visit. He says the main issue between Iran and the US is not communication, but what he described as Washington’s approach towards Tehran. The visit highlights Iraq’s effort to maintain relations with both Iran and the United States amid rising regional tensions. Subscribe to our channel: bit.ly
