Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi is scheduled to visit Turkey on Wednesday, Turkish and Iranian media reported on Saturday.
Earlier on January 3, Raisi canceled his trip to Turkey in the wake of a bombing in Kerman that resulted in the death of dozens of Iranians.
The explosions took place at a ceremony marking the fourth anniversary of the killing of Qasem Soleimani, a prominent Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps general.
In November Raisi also failed to show up for a summit in Ankara that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan had earlier announced to reporters but which Tehran itself never officially confirmed.
Erdoğan has emerged as one of the Muslim world’s most outspoken critics of Israel’s onslaught on Gaza in response to Hamas militants’ October 7 attack.
He has branded Israel a “terrorist state” and called Iran-backed Hamas “a liberation group.”
But analysts believe that Iran wants Turkey to move past the rhetoric and cut its trade and energy relations with Israel.
Iran and Turkey share a 535-kilometer (330-mile) border and a complex history of close economic relations and opposing views on regional disputes.
