Iran (IMNA) - In a statement published by Tunisian media, Araghchi emphasized the deep-rooted historical ties and strong bonds of brotherhood, mutual respect, and shared cultural and religious values between the two nations.
Araghchi described Tunisia as “the cradle of civilization and culture on the southern shore of the Mediterranean,” affirming that diplomatic relations between Iran and Tunisia, which have lasted more than six decades, are characterized by friendship, mutual understanding, and a commitment to expanding Islamic world ties based on respect for national sovereignty.
Despite regional challenges, the relationship has remained steadfast and has grown stronger, highlighted by Tunisian President Kais Saied’s historic visit to Iran last year and his meeting with Iran’s Leader, which opened a new chapter of comprehensive cooperation.
The minister also praised Tunisia’s firm support during recent aggression by the Zionist regime on Iranian soil, describing Tunisian backing as a clear reflection of the countries’ unbreakable solidarity and shared principles of resisting bullying and defending sovereignty.
Araghchi pointed to shared stances against foreign interference, solidarity with the Palestinian cause, and opposition to normalization efforts with the Zionist regime as core pillars of Iran-Tunisia relations.
While diplomatic ties have been positive, Araghchi acknowledged the underutilized economic potential between the two nations, calling for a significant boost in mutual trade and expressing optimism about senior officials’ strong determination to develop and diversify economic cooperation moving forward.
