TEHRAN, Oct. 31 (Mehr News Agency) – The head of the Iran-Armenia Joint
Chamber of Commerce and Industries announced here on Wednesday said that the two
sides’ trade volume will soar to one billion dollars.
Talking to MNA, Leon Aharonian put the current
trade volume at over $200 million, of which $160 million is related to Iran’s
exports and $40 million to Armenia’s exports.
Referring to Iran’s gas exports and energy
transmission to the neighboring country, he noted that Iran will export three
million cubic meters of gas to the country per day, naming the project a proper
way to transmit Iran’s gas to Europe.
Armenia is among those states that alongside other
regional states play an effective role in the North-South Corridor that has been
established between India, Iran, and Russia and is considered one of the
important trade routes linking Europe, East and West Asia.
