A military team from the Italian Army is in Iran for talks and visits to different units of the Iranian Armed Forces. Led by a ranking official from the Italian Army General Staff, the five-member delegation visited units of the Iranian Armed Forces on Sunday, Tasnim News Agency reported. In the five-day stay in Iran, the Italian delegation is scheduled to visit different divisions of the Iranian Armed Forces and hold talks with Iranian officials on issues of mutual interest. The trip takes place as part of Iran’s military interaction with friendly countries, according to the Iranian Armed Forces. Back in April, President Hassan Rouhani said Iran’s “diplomacy and armed forces pursue the same goal: national security, national might, stability and development in the country.” Iran holds several joint military war games with other countries every year, while senior Iranian military officials make reciprocal visits to other states.
