The Senate Chairman said Iran, being a very important country in the region, would play a positive role in realization of the Asia dreams as it had a very pivotal role to play in the Asian Parliamentary Assembly (APA).

Describing Pakistan and Iran ties as deep and brotherly, he said, "Iran and Pakistan have historical and traditional ties and I am sure that the recent visit by Pakistan's Adviser on Aational Security Nasser Khan Janjua to Tehran has been a very fruitful visit and will be able to further cement already existing brotherly relations.'
