Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi arrived in New Delhi on Thursday to co-chair the 20th India-Iran Joint Commission Meeting with External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar.
Araghchi’s visit coincides with the 75th anniversary of the India-Iran Friendship Treaty and comes at a time of heightened tensions in South Asia.
The Ministry of External Affairs welcomed Araghchi, noting the visit as a timely opportunity to deepen bilateral ties.
The meeting, hosted at Hyderabad House in the capital, will cover wide-ranging discussions on trade, energy, connectivity, and regional cooperation.
This is Araghchi’s first official visit to India since taking office in August 2024.
