The protocol was endorsed in a ceremony attended by Governor-General of Mazandaran Seyed Ali Akbar Tahayee and Governor of Astrakhan Alexander Alexanderovic in the provincial capital city of Sari.

The protocol paves the way for bolstering mutual cooperation in the fields of industry, trade, agriculture, health and medicine, education and sciences, and tourism.
