Azerbaijan’s defense minister to visit Iran next week

Azerbaijan’s Defense Minister Zakir Hasanov will pay a visit to Tehran next week at the invitation of his Iranian counterpart, Hossein Dehghan.

During his two-day visit that will start on April 14, Hasanov and Iranian defense officials will have an exchange of views on bilateral military cooperation and regional security, the Azeri Defense Ministry said on its website.

President Ilham Aliyev, who visited Tehran yesterday, said Azerbaijan and Iran should look for ways to expand military cooperation.

Azerbaijan has forged close military ties with Israel and NATO-member Turkey after regaining independence from the former Soviet Union in 1991.
