“There is great consensus in the visions of the two states on a series of issues… that will contribute to stability, security and peace,” he said, quoted by the official Oman News Agency.
Amir-Abdollahian, for his part, called the meeting “constructive” and praised the effective cooperation between the two sides, ONA said.
