IRNA -- Iranian Foreign Minister Kamal Kharrazi met his Luxembourg counterpart Lydie Polfer Wednesday evening and discussed bilateral relations and regional and international issues. ''I was very happy and honoured to receive today in Luxembourg my colleague Dr Kharrazi,'' Polfer told a joint press conference after their talks. Polfer said she paid a ''very important and enriching visit'' to Tehran last year because ''it gave me the opportunity to know more about Iran and about the people in Iran.''

''I was very much impressed by this wish of going on with the reform process,'' she said. Wednesday's talks between the two sides covered the situation in Iraq, Afghanistan, Middle East, disarmament, non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, fight against terrorism and drug trafficking. ''We agree on the importance of involvement of the UN very closely in the reconstruction of Iraq,'' she noted.
On the issue of terrorism, Polfer said, ''Iran has played a very active role in the aftermath of 11 September in the fight against terrorism.''
