Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif has expressed his delight at the current visit by Iraqi President Barham Salih and his accompanying delegation to Tehran, saying Iran and Iraq are committed to win-win cooperation.

"Constructive exchanges on next steps to work together towards regional peace & security," Zarif said in a post on his official Twitter account on Saturday.
"Strong, shared commitment to win-win in all neighborly relations. Our priority is our region," he added.
Salih arrived in Tehran on Saturday at the head of a delegation for a two-day visit, which comes at a sensitive time when the US is pressuring regional countries to go along with Washington in “squeezing” Iran under new sanctions unveiled early this month.
But Iraqi officials have protested to the dictate and underlined Iran’s importance, including its place as the top trade partner of the Arab country.
