Iran's new president, Masoud Pezeshkian, arrived in neighbouring Iraq on Wednesday as he moves to deepen already close ties on his first foreign visit since taking office.
"Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani welcomes the president of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Masoud Pezeshkian," the Iraqi premier's office said in a brief statement alongside a picture of the two men shaking hands on the tarmac at Baghdad airport.
