"We call for expediting implementation of joint projects and previously agreed-upon plans between the two sides," Vaezi said in a telephone conversation with Azerbaijan's Economy Minister Shahin Mustafayev in Tehran on Tuesday.
Mustafayev, for his part, praised the two countries’ efforts in expanding bilateral relations in the past four years, voicing hope for further development of Tehran-Baku cooperation during President Rouhani’s second term in office.
He further expressed his country’s resolve to implement the signed agreements with Iran as soon as possible and to launch new projects with the Islamic Republic to improve bilateral ties.
In relevant remarks in late May, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani in a message to his Azeri counterpart Ilham Aliyev called for broadening of bilateral relations in different fields.
"I hope that the good relations between the two countries will develop at bilateral, regional, and international levels," Rouhani said in his message to congratulate Azerbaijan Republic Day.
"I sincerely congratulate you, the government and the nation of Azerbaijan on the occasion of Azerbaijan's Republic Day," the Iranian president added.
