Grigor Hakobyan, Ambassador of the Republic of Armenia to Iran, met with Reza Masrour, Secretary of the Supreme Council for Free Trade Zones and Special Economic Zones, to discuss ways to develop bilateral cooperation and strengthen economic, trade, and investment relations between the two countries.
According to the Public Relations and International Affairs Department of the Secretariat of the Supreme Council for Free Trade Zones and Special Economic Zones, the two sides, while exchanging views on existing economic capabilities, emphasized the need to create investment opportunities and develop joint initiatives to attract domestic and foreign investors.
The Armenian Ambassador and the Secretary of the Supreme Council of Free Trade Zones and Special Economic Zones, highlighting the advantages of Armenia's membership in the Eurasian Economic Union, considered this accession a valuable opportunity for increased participation of Iranian producers and investors from the free trade zones in the markets of the union's member states.
The development of joint Iranian-Armenian products and their distribution in Eurasian markets were also proposed as an effective solution for increasing the two countries' share of regional trade.
Furthermore, the organization of joint investment trips with the participation of economic actors from both countries and the optimization of the capacity of the Iranian-Armenian transit corridors, particularly the north-south and east-west axes, were other points discussed at this meeting.
