Iranian Culture Minister Salehi Amiri and Slovak Minister of
Culture Marek Maďarič reiterated on Saturday the need for cooperation in the
fields of film, books and visual arts.
Speaking on the sidelines of the meeting between the two
countries signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), Salehi said the visit of
Marek Maďarič to Iran marks a prelude to deep political, economic and cultural
relations.
In the meeting, also attended by deputy culture ministers of
Iran and Slovokia, Salehi Amiri said agreement to hold cultural week, active
participation in art and book fairs, cinematic cooperation and cultural
diplomacy are among the provisions of the MoU signed between the two countries.
“After the implementation of JCPOA, Slovakia was the first
country to sign the Memorandum of Cooperation with Iran,” Salehi noted, adding
the visit of Slovakian minister of culture to Iran represents the operational
phase of agreements and joint plans.
Maďarič, for his part, expressed satisfaction with growing
relations between Tehran and Bratislava in political, cultural and trade
fields.
"Slovakian foreign policy consists of four parts, one
of which is to develop ties with Eastern countries, in addition to the West,”
he noted.
Maďarič underlined that despite high geographical distance
between the two countries, culture is an important factor to reduce the gaps
between nations.
