On June 23, Maduro had a telephone conversation with Iran’s elected president, hardline conservative cleric and chief justice, Ibrahim Raisi, in which he confirmed that they had agreed to strengthen relations between the two countries.

Maduro wrote in his account: “I had a phone conversation with Seyed Ibrahim Raisi, the elected president of the Islamic Republic of Iran. We agreed to strengthen the ties of brotherhood and cooperation between us to advance the common fight against imperialist aggression against our peoples.” from Twitter.
