The Iranian envoy also pointed to the 'constructive' role of parliamentary talks between the two countries in broadening bilateral relations.
In turn, Myasnikovich alluded to Iran's position in the region and world and its ancient history, saying that Tehran-Minks political and economic ties are an appropriate level.

It borders with Russian to the north and east, Ukraine to the south, Poland to the west, and Lithuania and Latvia to the north and northwest.
