"The successful holding of the Tehran conference under the current conditions plays an important role in the materialization of the Palestinian people's rights," Pashazadeh, the Grand Mufti of the Caucasus, said in a meeting with Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani on Sunday.

Elsewhere, he described Islam as a major, and rather the most important, commonality of the Iranian and Azeri nations, and said the two countries enjoy very profound and brotherly relations.
