Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei held a meeting with President Masoud Pezeshkian, the IRNA news agency reported on Sunday.

According to the agency, the leaders discussed "the country's strategy in the sphere of economy and defense." The meeting was timed to mark the start of Pezeshkian's third year in office as president.

Meanwhile, Press TV reported that Khamenei and Pezeshkian exchanged views on economic cooperation with other countries, as well as ways to improve the living standards of the Iranian population.

Khamenei became Iran's supreme leader in the spring of this year, but has not appeared in public since. Earlier this week, Iranian media published a video of Khamenei, but it later emerged that it was likely filmed long ago, before his election as the country's leader.

Some Iranian media outlets report that Tehran plans to release fresh footage of Khamenei soon.
