According to the press service of the Iranian Foreign Ministry, President Ebrahim Raisi intends to visit Tajikistan this year.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Tajikistan, Sirojiddin Muhriddin, during a meeting with his Iranian counterpart Amir Abdollahian in Tashkent, “expressed hope” that according to the program, Ebrahim Raisi will visit Tajikistan on an official visit this year, the statement noted.

The Tajik Foreign Ministry has not yet reported anything about the upcoming visit of Ebrahim Raisi. The exact date of his visit is also unknown.

Since Ebrahim Raisi came to power in Iran, relations between Dushanbe and Tehran have somewhat improved. The current President of Iran made his first foreign visit to Tajikistan. Later, Emomali Rahmon also visited Tehran.

After these visits of the heads of state, relations between the countries improved, and after almost 7 years of what Emomali Rahmon described as “hostile” relations, the parties have taken a course towards rapprochement.
