Three documents, including the draft of a resolution on Palestine, the draft of the Banjul Communique and the draft of the final document of the summit will be presented to the meeting of the Council of Foreign Ministers and afterwards to the summit.
Iran’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Hossein Amirabdollahian, leading a delegation, left Tehran for Banjul on Friday to take part in the summit meeting of the OIC.
