Iranian parliament passes bill on InfoSec cooperation agreement with Russia
Based on the single-clause bill, the Tehran-Moscow cooperation agreement is comprised of an introduction, nine articles and one attachment. The bill also allows the exchange of documents between the two sides.
The generalities of the bill were approved by 180 votes in favor of the agreement and 27 votes against it.
Lawmakers in favor of the agreement deemed it necessary to further deepen ties between Iran and Russia as the two countries have already signed a 20-year comprehensive deal to expand cooperation in various fields.
Abolfazl Amouee, the spokesman of the Majlis National Security and Foreign Policy Commission, said that the information security agreement provides methods to confront cyber threats facing Iran and Russia.
