Anadolu Agency (@anadoluagency), has been meticulous in its preparations for the launch of the Persian service, taking into consideration the social, cultural, historical, economic and geostrategic significance for Turkey of the Persian-speaking countries, which include Iran, Afghanistan and Tajikistan.
