According to Iran Review commentary the recent trip by Afghanistan’s President Mohammad Ashraf Ghani to Iran should be considered something beyond ordinary meetings between the officials from the two neighbouring countries.During this recent visit by Ghani, he was accompanied by high-ranking Afghan officials from ministries of foreign affairs, interior, higher education, and immigration, as well as officials from the Ministry of Energy and Water and the Ministry of Frontiers, Nations and Tribal Affairs. During their stay in Iran, Afghan officials met and conferred with their Iranian counterparts and two memorandums of understanding were signed between the two countries’ ministers of foreign affairs and higher education. This can be considered as the first step that the national unity government of Afghanistan has taken for the development of Kabul’s relations with Tehran.
