Strategic Council Online: The President of the Strategic Council on Foreign Relations stated, “Despite the signing of the 25-year Comprehensive Cooperation Agreement between Iran and China, a long path remains toward its full implementation. One key point both countries must observe is to move away from a project-based approach and instead adopt a program-oriented relationship by formulating a concrete action plan. This plan should be grounded in Iran’s national spatial planning framework and aligned with the mutual priorities of both nations as outlined in the 25-year Comprehensive Cooperation Document.”
