Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarid on Friday cabled a message to his Turkish counterpart, Mevlut Cavusolgu calling for expansion of close cooperation in the fight against terrorism and uprooting of the issue in the region and the world.

In the message, Zarif congratulated his Turkish counterpart on his reappointment as Turkish foreign minister and expressed the hope that under his wisdom and far-sightedness a resolution will be found for the current tensions between Russian and Turkey.

Tehran will seize the opportunity and voice readiness to help resolve regional and global issues at this sensitive juncture, Zarif said.

It is expected that the dispute between the two neighbors to be resolved and all parties will be able to shake hands to a strong deal against terrorism in the region and the world, Zarif said.

Downing a Russian jet fighter by Turkey has created tension in Ankara-Moscow relations; IRNA reported.
