They discussed regional and international developments, bilateral issues and the means to expand media cooperation between Tehran and Ankara, the report said.
For his part, the Turkish official stressed the need for the expansion of Iran-Turkey media ties in order to enlighten public opinion and remove ambiguities between the two countries regarding regional developments.
