Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani is set to visit Iran within the next two weeks, a source from his office confirmed on Monday.

The visit will focus on discussions about the ongoing situation in Syria and broader regional developments. Prime Minister al-Sudani is expected to meet with Iran’s President and Supreme Leader to address these pressing issues.

This marks the Prime Minister’s second visit to Iran this year. His last trip was on May 22, 2024, when he attended the mourning ceremony for Iran’s late President Ibrahim Raisi.

The visit comes at a critical time, as the region grapples with significant political and security challenges. Observers anticipate that the talks will also touch on bilateral relations and strategies to address shared concerns in the region.

Details of the agenda remain undisclosed, but the timing highlights Iraq’s role as a key player in mediating and managing regional dynamics.
