Иран и Армения договорились развивать сотрудничество между их свободными экономическими зонами

Как сообщает иранское информационное агентство IRNA, на встрече между советником президента Ирана, Акбаром Торканом, и министром экономического развития и инвестиций Армении, Суреном Караяном, были обсуждены вопросы расширения сотрудничества между их соответствующими зонами свободной торговли (ЗСТ).

Торкан, который также является секретарем Совета свободной торговли, промышленных и особых экономических зон Ирана, сказал, что Армения является мостом Ирана для транспортировки и экспорта товаров в Европу. По его словам, обе страны могут экспортировать свои совместно произведенные продукты в другие страны.

Он также подчеркнул возможности иранских подрядчиков по развитию зон свободной торговли в Армении, если необходимая инфраструктура будет предоставлена правительством страны.

Министр Армении, со своей стороны, сказал, что его правительство всегда уделяло особое внимание своим экономическим и торговым отношениям с Ираном, добавив, что, производя широкий ассортимент продукции в своих зонах свободной торговли и экспортируя их в Европу, Иран и Армения могут обновить экономические отношения в регионе.

На встрече присутствовал посол Ирана в Ереване, Казем Саджади.

Между тем в Ереване было объявлено, что после переговоров обе стороны также подписали меморандум, определяющий основные направления сотрудничества между зонами свободной торговли в Армении и Иране, в частности, для обеспечения развития зон свободной торговли Мегри и Араса.
