According to the mission of the Presidential Development and Development Cooperation Center, this event is held in order to develop technology and facilitate international cooperation in the field of digital economy.

When we talk about the digital economy and government policies regarding it, it should be noted that one of the researches reviewed in 2017 is that it is estimated that if the country’s digital economy is to be developed by countries, Half of the digital economy of that country should be provided by the domestic market and a part of it should be developed in the international field. This means that if we want to be active in the field of digital economy, half of our activities should be in the field of international and multilateral cooperation.

Based on the measures that have been taken, we are seeking to pursue international cooperation in this area with the countries of the region. We hope that in Thursday’s meeting, the richness of our cooperation will increase and we will reach common and precise topics.

Russia and Iran have had a two-year history of cooperation in the field of digital economy, and we hope that more follow-ups will be done in this field. There has also been a proposal from the past between the two countries regarding a joint working group in the field of digital economy where the two countries can cooperate with each other.

Currently, due to the sanctions, Russia is experiencing the situation that Iran has had for a long time, and therefore it can use Iran’s experiences in this field to be able to stand against these sanctions.

Our goal is to have joint cooperation with Iran at the international level and in the field of technology. Considering that SWIFT has been sanctioned for both countries, we should start our cooperation and use experiences in the field of blockchain and finance technology and advance our economic goals.

There are many experts in Iran and Russia that we can use in this cooperation. The conditions that exist now can be used as an incentive to continue and progress in these fields.

Now the conditions in Iran are favorable and we can create our own international payment system together so that we no longer depend on international currencies and use our domestic currency and use it internationally.

Now we see that, except for NFT and coins, when it comes to the field of metaverse, we still see that this technology is present in it. It seems that representatives of the private sector should be present wherever new technologies create changes in people’s lifestyles and behavior, and should be the driving force of this issue earlier than the government, Parliament and other institutions.

Governance concerns should be resolved and the issue of organization should be considered, however, the preservation of people’s capital should be prioritized. Let’s be sure that the private sector and investors will participate in a process when they know that this process is arranged in such a way that their capital is safe.

There are many strengths, especially talent and ability, between Iran and Russia. In Iran and Russia, we have talented people in this field, and therefore we can focus on each other’s strengths. I believe that the technical and business capabilities of the two countries can complement each other in the current situation, and we are happy that Russia is also seeking to write agreements and is understanding.
