Congratulating the Iraqi official over the opening of the new cabinet of Iraq, Ardakanian hoped that discussing the previous agreements between the two countries and Iran’s three-year long program to cooperate with Iraq in electricity industry be an achievement of his visit to Iraq.
Earlier on Wednesday Ardakanian and Iraqi President Barham Salih in a meeting in Baghdad discussed enhancing bilateral relations, especially in the energy and electricity fields.
Ardakanian is supposed to hold talks with Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kadhimi, and governor of the Iraqi central bank.
Upon his arrival in Baghdad, Ardakanian held a meeting with his Iraqi counterpart.

During his stay, Ardakanian is scheduled to hold talks with the Iraqi officials.
Developing Tehran-Baghdad electricity cooperation, synchronizing electricity grids, establishing cooperation in education, and developing power grids are among the topics that will be discussed by both sides.
