Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borisov's visit to the Islamic Republic of Iran highlights the "excellent" relations between the two countries, Tehran's Ambassador to Sofia has opined.

Abdollah Norouzi is quoted by Mehr News Agency as saying ahead of the official part of the visit that talks might focus on the so-called Persian Gulf-Black Sea transport corridor as a strategic route between Iran and Europe.

"The visit of Bulgaria’s highest-ranking official is a seal of approval to the best status in [relations]," Norouzi has added.

Previously, at a joint economic committee that held a session in March after a seven-year break, the two countries discussed the prospects to set up transport corridors turning Bulgaria into Iran's "gateway into Europe", but no specific agreement was reached.
