The Iranian ambassador met with the head of the Supreme Economic Court of Tajikistan

On December 20, the extraordinary ambassador of Iran, Alireza Hakikian, met with the chairman of the Supreme Economic Court of Tajikistan, Mirzozoda Rustam.

According to the press service of the Iranian embassy in Tajikistan, the parties discussed a new stage of relations between the two countries in all areas, particularly in the fields of economy and trade.

The Iranian ambassador emphasized the importance of cooperation between the parties in the field of judicial activities, protecting the judicial bodies of both countries from mutual economic, trade, and investment activities during the expansion of bilateral cooperation.

In 2016, after the leader of the Islamic Revival Party of Tajikistan, Muhiddin Kabiri, participated in a conference in Tehran, relations between Tajikistan and Iran significantly deteriorated. However, after a few years, the countries resumed relations, and currently, the authorities are strengthening ties between the countries. In joint meetings, the parties pay more attention to cooperation in economic-trade and judicial-legal spheres.

Since Iran was previously considered a patron of the Islamic Revival Party of Tajikistan, and the Tajik authorities banned the party and declared it a terrorist organization in 2015, some experts believe that today the Tajik authorities are trying to establish diplomatic relations with Iran and sign more agreements in the field of justice to achieve the extradition of individuals undesirable to the Tajik authorities living in Iran or to prohibit entry into Iran for opponents of the Tajik authorities.
