According to Iran's Department of Environment, the organization's deputy head, Ahmadreza Lahijan-Zadeh, made the remarks on Wednesday at the seventh meeting of the convention in Tehran.

He noted that the sixth meeting on the protection of the Caspian Sea environment was held in Baku five years ago, adding that significant efforts had been made over the past five years to advance the convention's objectives.

Lahijan-Zadeh also highlighted the importance of cooperation among Caspian littoral states under the Ramsar Convention in protecting wetlands and migratory birds around the Caspian Sea.
