The President of the Government received today the Ambassador of Iran in Portugal at an audience where Vasco Cordeiro and Hossein Gharibi had the opportunity of exchanging views on various sectors such as Agriculture, Fisheries and Tourism.
"These areas were chosen with the aim of creating the conditions to disseminate the Azores," said Vasco Cordeiro after the audience that was held in Ponta Delgada.
According to Vasco Cordeiro, this meeting also served to promote the exchange of information between the Regional Government and the Embassy of Iran at an operational level.
The President of the Government also took the opportunity of highlighting this visit of the Ambassador of Iran to the Azores, which falls within the openness and dissemination of the Azores with countries that have diplomatic representation in Portugal.
"As the Azores part of the country, it is, of course, an honour for us to welcome representatives of countries with which Portugal has diplomatic relations," said Vasco Cordeiro.
