Vladimir Putin called the signed agreement a “breakthrough.” He mentioned his intention to “take relations to a qualitatively new level.”
Russia and Iran concluded a new bilateral cooperation agreement, called Comprehensive Strategic Partnership Agreement. The document was signed by Russian dictator Vladimir Putin and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian on Friday, January 17.
The agreement consists of 47 articles and covers all areas, including defense, counter-terrorism, energy, finance, transportation, industry, agriculture, culture, science and technology.
It is argued that the treaty does not provide for mutual defense in the event of an attack and does not contain references to specific countries and military blocs.
Putin called the signed agreement a “breakthrough.”
“The document aims to create the necessary conditions for stable and sustainable development of Russia, Iran and our entire Eurasian region,” he said.
In turn, Pezeshkian said that the agreement “opens a new page” in relations between Iran and the Russian Federation, especially in trade.
Earlier, the media reported that Iran refused to recognize Crimea as Russian, as well as other Ukrainian territories in the new partnership agreement.
