Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian headed to Iraq on Friday to participate in a regional summit, the ministry said. 

Iran’s new President Ebrahim Raisi has also been invited to the Baghdad summit, but it is not clear if he will attend, Arab News reported on Friday. 

According to Iraqi officials, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi and Jordan’s King Abdullah II have said they will attend the summit. Leaders from Saudi Arabia and Turkey have also been invited.

French President Emmanuel Macron will attend the gathering as the only official expected from outside the region. 

Iraq is seeking to establish itself as a mediator between Arab countries and Iran.
