TEHRAN (FNA)- Iran's Northern Province of Mazandaran and the Republic of Dagestan plan to pave the ground for the further development of their mutual cooperation in various educational, tourism, industrial, and trade sectors.


In a meeting between Representative of the Republic of Dagestan in Iran Aliyev and Mazandaran Governor General Rabei Fallah on Monday, Aliyev said that his country is keen on economic cooperation with Mazandaran province of Iran.

He went on to say that his country seeks to cooperate with Iran in agro-products, tourism industry, technical and engineering services.

Aliyev said over 50,000 tons of cement from Mazandaran province will be transited to Russia through Dagestan.

He further added that some 48 huge projects are to be implemented in Dagestan in which Iranian investors mainly from Mazandaran province will play significant role.
