Relations with neighbors in the 13th government strengthens the country’s economic strength / Qatar needs Iran’s agricultural market
In an interview with IRNA, Dariush Ghanbari said about the economic diplomacy of the 13th government: “Activation of economic diplomacy that provides national interests and creates economic stability for the country is approved by every Iranian with compassion and obviously the best and cheapest benefits through communication.” It is achieved with the neighbors and the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran must identify the capacities of the region and while strengthening and developing relations, increase the amount of trade with the neighbors.
“Iran has 16 countries with land and sea borders, which is a unique situation in the world and a great opportunity, and to some extent the market of these countries,” said a member of the Central Council of the Democracy Party. It is diverse that except for some special goods and services and some technologies, if Iran focused all its economic focus on these neighbors, it would have almost no need for distant countries in terms of exports and imports.
He reminded: “Access and development of relations with neighbors and friendly countries is an opportunity for us because we do not have the least problem with distance with them and we only have to have goods and services for these diverse markets, which requires strengthening production and appropriate services.” It fits the market of these countries.
Ghanbari said: “Everyone should support the good actions of the government and now that the president is determined to strengthen the country’s relations with its neighbors, the first way should be encouraged, because wherever and whenever any action that serves the national interest and strengthens the country’s economic strength.” It should be supported by all groups.
Regarding the benefits of the president’s visit to Doha, the reformist political activist said: “The amount of financial exchanges between Iran and Qatar is now about one billion dollars, which is really a very small figure.” Iran and Qatar are two rich countries and the same country has financial relations with some countries close to us up to 20 billion dollars, while the relations between Iran and Qatar have always been friendly and stable, so what are the factors that have hindered the development of economic relations in the past? And financial between the two countries, should be studied and pathologically.
He described Qatar as a very good market for Iranian agricultural products and said: “Iran, Qatar and Russia are the largest holders of gas resources and reserves in the world.” Therefore, the Doha visit can be a good basis for an agreement with the host country regarding the management of the global gas market, including extraction, pricing and exports. Therefore, I hope the Iranian delegation’s visit will increase the level of economic and trade relations between the two countries. And reach a better figure.
