TEHRAN: Poland has proposed to enhance its economic relations with Iran, especially in energy and transport areas.
Poland’s Deputy Foreign Minister, Katarzyna Kacperczyk, met with Iran’s Chamber of Commerce, Industries, Mines, and Agriculture Chairman Gholamhossein Shafe’i in Tehran, calling for a boost in bilateral trade and investment.
Kacperczyk, heading a 100-member business delegation, arrived in Tehran on Sunday for a two-day visit to explore new avenues for bilateral trade.
The delegation is also comprised of top directors from Poland’s ministries of foreign affairs, agriculture, and economy, as well as representatives from a wide range of companies that plan to look for the opportunities to invest in Iran in different areas.
There are different organizations in Poland which are willing to expand cooperation with Iranian counterparts in different fields of economy, such as transport, energy, agriculture, and infrastructure, the Polish official stated.
Poland can be reliable trade partner for Iran, as the country is the largest economy in Eastern Europe and the sixth largest in the European Union, she said.
Shafe’i, for his part, said that Iran can be a link to connect Poland to Central Asia and the Middle East.
Iran seeks Poland’s expertise in shipbuilding, agriculture, and environment protection projects, he added.
Iranian Ambassador to Poland Ramin Mehmanparast has said that the volume of trade between Iran and Poland is currently around €100 million annually, but the two countries plan to boost the figure to €1 billion in the short term.
