During the meeting, Ayatollah Khamenei laid emphasis on the importance of cooperation between the two neighbors. He said the two countries should take strides in expanding political, economic and scientific ties, arguing that there are no obstacles to this end. Ayatollah Khamenei praised the performance of the Iraqi government, but said Baghdad needs to do more to improve the welfare of Iraqis.

Iran and Iraq have enjoyed growing ties ever since the overthrow of the former Iraqi dictator, Saddam Hussein in 2003.
