Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi landed in Cholpon-Ata, Kyrgyzstan, this evening leading a political delegation to attend the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) Council of Foreign Ministers, according to reports.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi arrived in Kyrgyzstan on Thursday evening, landing in the resort city of Cholpon-Ata at the head of a political delegation. The delegation is set to take part in the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) Council of Foreign Ministers meeting, according to the source that covers Arab-world affairs.
The visit is part of a broader pattern of Iranian diplomatic outreach. As The Zioneer has reported, Araghchi has recently traveled to Iraq, Qatar, Pakistan, Lebanon, and met with Taliban officials in Tehran. The SCO meeting provides Iran, which became a full member of the bloc in 2023, a platform to advance regional cooperation and counter Western influence.
The specific agenda of Araghchi's participation and any planned bilateral meetings on the margins of the SCO session have not been disclosed.
