Envoy: Oman resolved to broaden relations with Iran

'To attain the goal the country is to exclusively dedicate Suwayq port to ease commute of Iranian businessmen and nationals to the country,' Mohammad Reza Nouri Shahroudi said on Monday.

The Iranian ambassador said that the two sides also are set to increase the number of flights between the two countries in line with the same policy.

'We are witnessing that political relations between the two countries are at its zenith and economic ties improving day by day,' Nouri Shahroudi told reporters on the sidelines of a visit by Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif to Oman.

Nouri Shahroudi said that the Iranian foreign minister and his Omani counterpart are to discuss bilateral ties and regional developments.

'Various issues such as current developments in northern Iraq along with ill-wishing events concerning the implementation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) are to be reviewed between the two sides,' the ambassador added.
