He stressed development and continuation of friendly relations and cooperation between Iran and Turkey.

In a congratulation message to Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani on his re-appointment, Kahraman also emphasized the importance of promoting parliamentarian ties between Iran and Turkey.

He invited Larijani to pay a visit to Ankara, according to ISNA.

Iran and Turkey enjoy high level of parliamentarian relations.

Larijani, soon after the failed coup in Turkey, sent a message to the country’s parliament offering many congratulations to his counterpart, members of the parliament, government and people in Turkey on the “victory of the nation’s will, national sovereignty and democracy over a desperate and doomed measure” against the country’s democratically-elected bodies.
