The two leaders have signed a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership Agreement
Russian President Vladimir Putin and his Iranian counterpart Masoud Pezeshkian have signed a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership Agreement in Moscow on Friday, according to the Kremlin.
The two leaders have said that the landmark document, which covers areas ranging from defense and energy cooperation to culture and science, provides a new impetus to the country’s bilateral ties.
The agreement replaces the previous deal on cooperation between Moscow and Tehran that was signed back in 2001. Work on the new agreement had been underway since 2022, and was reportedly approved by both sides in June last year.
Putin has had two meetings with Pezeshkian, since the Iranian president was sworn into office last summer, the most recent being at the BRICS summit in Kazan in late October.
