National Assembly Speaker Dr Vladimir Orlic Meets with Iranian President in Tehran

As part of his official visit to Tehran, the Speaker of the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia Dr Vladimir Orlic, met with the President of Iran Ebrahim Raisi.


The National Assembly Speaker said that the two countries share a sincere friendship, proven by Iran's principled position of non-recognition of so-called "Kosovo". President Raisi stressed that his country will remain consistent on this issue. "Rest assured that Iran will continue to support the territorial integrity and sovereignty of the Republic of Serbia", said President Raisi, confirming Iran's determination to develop comprehensive relations with Serbia. He took the opportunity to thank the National Assembly Speaker for his visit, as well as his involvement in the development of bilateral cooperation.

The President of Iran and the Speaker of the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia confirmed their readiness to improve cooperation in all areas that allow space and mutual interest for it, primarily in the sphere of economy, stressing that a Joint Commission and the parliaments’ activities could greatly contribute to said cooperation.

In the course of the meeting, the officials also discussed the current difficult situation in the southern Serbian province. The Speaker of the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia said that Serbia highly appreciates Iran's understanding and support in this matter, stressing that the Serbian people in Kosovo-Metohija are facing terror and that Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic is making daily efforts to preserve peace. At the end of the conversation, President Raisi restated that Serbia can count on Iran's support on all important issues in the future, which Dr Orlic thanked him for, wishing every success and progress to friendly Iran and its people.

The meeting between the Serbian National Assembly Speaker and the President of Iran was also attended by the Head of the Parliamentary Friendship Group with Iran Jasmina Karanac and the Serbian Ambassador in Tehran H.E. Dragan Todorovic.
