Hey Amigo News readers! 🎉 Did you hear? China and Iran just marked their 53rd anniversary of diplomatic relations with a big celebration in Tehran on Thursday!
The Chinese Embassy threw a fantastic ceremony, attended by Chinese Ambassador Cong Peiwu, Alaeddin Boroujerdi (the chairman of the Iran-China Friendship Association and a top Iranian lawmaker), and other important guests. 🌟
Flashback to August 16, 1971: That's when China and Iran officially became diplomatic buddies. But get this—Ambassador Cong reminded everyone that their friendship actually goes back over 2,000 years! 😲 Talk about #FriendshipGoals!
Cong shared how over the years, the bond between the two countries has only gotten stronger. They've deepened political trust, boosted practical cooperation, and ramped up cultural exchanges. Fun fact: China has been Iran's biggest trade partner for several years now! 🛍️🍜
Boroujerdi was all smiles too. He praised the comprehensive strategic partnership between China and Iran. With Iran's new administration, he's super excited about taking their relationship to the next level. Plus, he's hopeful about Iran playing a key role in China's Belt and Road Initiative. 🚀🌏
Cheers to China and Iran for 53 years of awesome collaboration! 🥂 Here's to many more years of friendship and growth! 🌟
