Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi and Iranian President Hassan Rouhani signed a series of bilateral accords in Tehran on Tuesday, signaling their desire to restore ties after this year's implementation of the Iran nuclear deal.

The agreements included plans for cooperation between Italian energy electricity and gas company Enel and the National Iranian Gas Export Co., Iranian state news agency IRNA reported. Other deals included a car-component agreement with Danieli Group and an agreement with the Milan Airports company to renovate a domestic airport in Tehran, and another focused on promoting tourism, according to IRNA.

Italy ranked among Iran's top trading partners before international sanctions were imposed on Iran over its nuclear ambitions.
