Iran has officially resumed high-level diplomatic talks with neighboring countries, aiming to boost regional security and economic cooperation.
The primary focus of the new summit is establishing cross-border trade agreements to stabilize the local economy.
Foreign ministers from several Gulf nations arrived in Tehran early Monday to participate in the closed-door discussions.
A government spokesperson called the meetings 'a crucial step toward long-term peace and mutual prosperity in the Middle East.'
These negotiations come as Iran seeks new avenues to bypass heavy international economic sanctions and boost its exports.
Discussions also highlighted potential joint investments in the energy sector, particularly focusing on natural gas extraction and distribution.
Global powers are closely monitoring the talks, as any new alliances could significantly shift the geopolitical balance in the region.
Delegates are expected to sign a preliminary agreement by Friday, setting the stage for broader economic integration.
