Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi met with Nicolás Maduro in Caracas yesterday and signed 25 agreements in multiple areas to strengthen cooperation against "common enemies"
"The relationship between Iran and Venezuela is not a normal diplomatic relationship, but a strategic relationship between two countries that have common interests, common worldviews, and common enemies," Raisi said in a statement with Maduro, in which he said he wanted to expand bilateral trade to 10 billion dollars a year. "Iran is playing a leading role as one of the most important emerging powers in the new world," Maduro said. "Together, we will be invincible!" the socialist leader shouted with an image in the background of the flags of Venezuela and Iran merging into one. Maduro handed the Iranian president the "Order Libertadores de Venezuela" decoration. Today the Iranian president is at Ortega, in Nicaragua, then in Cuba.
