Iranian Justice Minister Mostafa Pourmohammadi in a meeting with Deputy Head of Russian Federation Council Elias Omakhanov here on Thursday underlined that the common stances of Iran and Russia can change the future of the region, IRNA reported.
'Tehran-Moscow relations are rapidly developing and convergences between Iran and Russia on Syria can change the fate of the region,' Pourmohammadi said today.
The Iranian justice minister said the cooperation between Iran and Russia will result in preventing the US and the West not to promote their regional interests.
'We hope that we could purge the Middle East of terrorists and that the regional nations, including Syria and Iraq, could determine their own fate,' Pourmohammadi said.
