TEHRAN (IRI) - In an effort to foster camaraderie and cooperation between nations, the Iranian Armed Forces successfully concluded the "Iran CISM Solidarity Program" with the Pakistani Army, aimed at promoting wrestling as a symbol of solidarity in the Greater Middle East.

 

CISM serves as a unique platform for building bonds of friendship among nations through sports. Recognizing the potential of this initiative, the Iranian Armed Forces prioritized deepening friendly relations with neighboring countries, aligning with CISM's comprehensive solidarity programs.

Wrestling, deeply ingrained in ancient Iranian culture and tradition, was identified as a sport that could facilitate collaboration between the Iranian Armed Forces and interested nations in the Greater Middle East region. As a result of an agreement between the Iranian Armed Forces and the Pakistani Army, two Iranian Armed Forces wrestling coaches were dispatched to Pakistan from June 25 to July 25. Their mission was to impart wrestling techniques to 40 coaches and wrestling champions from the Pakistan Army.

 

Under the "Iran CISM Solidarity Program," the training proved to be a resounding success, as indicated by the positive evaluations and feedback from the participants. The program not only strengthened athletic skills but also served as a symbol of cooperation and unity in the region.
