Russian President Vladimir Putin described Moscow’s relations with Baghdad as historically strong and unbroken during a meeting with Iraqi President Abdul Latif Rashid in Turkmenistan.
Speaking at the talks, Putin said, “I fully agree with you: our relations are deep and long-standing. And throughout their entire history, there has never been a dark moment.” He stressed that, despite regional turbulence, Russia has consistently supported Iraq’s territorial integrity and maintained close ties.
Rashid called for a fresh boost in cooperation, specifically requesting Russian assistance in advanced technologies. “We seek your support in this area, particularly in mechanical engineering, infrastructure development and agriculture,” he said, pointing to the long-standing presence of Iraqi engineers in Russian universities.
The Iraqi president also accepted an invitation from Putin to visit Russia with a ministerial delegation, aiming to expand economic collaboration and strengthen political coordination between the two countries.
