The welcoming ceremony began with the national anthem of both countries, followed by the introduction of delegations. After the protocol, Pezeshkian and Pashinyan began bilateral talks.
Pezeschkian arrived in Armenia on Monday to the chief of a high-level delegation and marked the first stop on an official trip that took him to Belarus.

Before his departure, the president said strengthening relations with his neighbors and allies was one of Iran’s top priorities.
