TEHRAN (AFP) – Iran’s top national security official Ali Larijani has arrived in Baghdad for a previously unannounced three-day visit, Iranian state television reported Sunday.
Iran’s foreign ministry spokesman had revealed that Larijani was planning to visit Baghdad for talks on this week’s international conference on Iraqi security, the foreign ministry spokesman said on Sunday.
"The visit of Mr Larijani is in the framework of bilateral relations. He will probably talk about security questions and the international conference" to be held in Egypt’s resort of Sharm el-Sheikh, Mohammad Ali Hosseini said Sunday.
Hosseini said the timing of the visit would be clarified "either on Sunday or on Monday" without giving further details.
