Tension in relations between Azerbaijan and Iran has been completely eliminated, Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov told at the final press conference on Monday.

“It's no secret that some time ago there was tension, certain misunderstandings between the two countries (Azerbaijan - Iran), but they were eliminated,” the minister said.

According to him, a meeting of the presidents of Iran and Azerbaijan took place in Ashgabat, during which a wide range of issues were discussed. During the Baku meeting last week, the parties agreed to hold political consultations at least once every six months.

He also noted that a meeting of the Azerbaijani-Iranian intergovernmental economic commission will be held in the near future: "Within the framework of this meeting, a roadmap will be agreed and adopted on the implementation of new projects in the economic sphere between Azerbaijan and Iran."
