Ebrahim Rezaei, Chairman of the Iran-Russia parliamentary friendship group
Chairman of the Iran-Russia parliamentary friendship group says that Tehran and Moscow have reached good agreements in various fields.
Ebrahim Rezaei told local media on Sunday that in the field of energy, the two sides agreed to cooperate in the development of Irans oil and natural gas fields.
In the monetary and banking sector, Iran and Russia agreed to take positive steps to ditch the US dollar as the dominant currency in bilateral trade, particularly in the transportation sector, he said.
Rezaei also pointed out that the international trade among countries located in the Eurasia continental area amounted to $300bn annually and if Iran achieved to gain even ten percent of business going on in this market, it would result in a major economic boost for the nation.
Rezaei comments come after Iranian President Ebrahim Raeisis visit to Moscow last week, as part of comprehensive plans to expand all-out cooperation between the neighboring countries.
Meanwhile, Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian described Raeisis recent trip to Russia as a "great achievement" and new chapter in relations between Tehran and Moscow.
Irans top diplomat said Raeisis two-day visit had great achievements for the country and brought about openness in relations with regard to Tehrans foreign policy.
Amir-Abdollahian pointed out that during the visit "necessary decisions were made on important issues of mutual interest."
