Iranian Industry, Mining, and Trade Minister Mohammad Atabak and Andrey Slepnev, the minister in charge of trade of the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC), have discussed ways of expanding economic cooperation in a meeting on the sidelines of the Eurasian Business Forum in Armenia.
In this meeting, the Iranian side emphasized the need for establishing an insurance company under the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) to provide the necessary guarantees regarding Iran’s technical and engineering exports to the region, IRIB reported.
The two sides also discussed the increase in trade between Iran and the Eurasian Economic Union and the Free Trade Agreement (FTA) implementation.
Another focal point of the negotiations was the unification of the standards of the member countries of the EAEU with Iran to facilitate exports to the union.
