President Armen Sarkissian sent a congratulatory message to Ebrahim Raisi on his being elected President of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

The message particularly says:

"I believe that under your leadership, Iran will continue the path of development and prosperity.

Armenia values the consistent strengthening and deepening of the good-neighbourly relations and constructive dialogues with Iran; this is one of the most important conditions ensuring progress of our states and stability in the region. Our two friendly peoples’ desire to know each other and cooperate comes from the depths of centuries, affording today wider opportunities.

I am full of hope that with joint efforts the warm and friendly Armenian-Iranian relations will continue to develop and expand in all spheres, registering positive dynamics for a qualitatively new level of cooperation between our peoples."

President Sarkissian wished Ebrahim Raisi good health and labour achievements, and the brotherly people of Iran peace and prosperity.
