Iran, Japan to hold cultural nights

What can under current conditions help global peace and friendship is cultural cooperation among the governments and nations, Ali Asghar Mounesan added in a meeting with Japanese Ambassador in Iran Mitsuo Saito on Tuesday.

“I believe that cultural issues can bring governments and nations closer to each other and strengthen their relations,” he said.

Iran and Japan have long-standing and excellent ties with each other and the Iranian nation has a good feeling towards the Japanese people. So they can continue their cultural cooperation, he said.

“We are interested to reciprocally organize cultural nights and our museum palaces, including Sa’dabad and Niavaran are ready to host the events,” Mounesan said.

Japanese ambassador, for his part, referred to significance of cultural ties between the countries, saying that Iran is ready for cooperation in all fields, particularly culture.

Mitsuo Saito further noted that common museum cooperation and holding cultural festivals can serve as areas of mutual collaboration.

“During the time I am in Iran, I concluded that the Iranian nation are familiar with the Japanese people and have good feeling towards them,” he said.
