Iran and Armenia endorsed 3 Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) and
documents on cooperation in the veterinary, cultural, arts, scientific
and economic fields.
The
documents were inked in the presence of Iranian First Vice-President
Eshaq Jahangiri and Armenian Prime Minister Karen Karapetyan in Tehran
on Monday.
Before the inking ceremony, the Iranian and Armenian delegations held a meeting.
During the meeting, Jahangiri described gas,
electricity, agriculture, industries, technical and engineering services
and transportation as fields for mutual cooperation, and said, "Iran
and Armenia enjoy good and constructive cooperation on regional and
international issues."
Karapetyan, for his part, underlined Armenia's
preparedness to considerably increase the volume of trade relations
between the two countries, adding that age-old bilateral relations can
be effective and constructive in this field.
Iranian and Armenian high councils of free trade
and special economic zones signed an MoU in August to broaden their
cooperation.
The MoU was signed to increase cooperation between Iran's Aras and Armenia's Mogri free trade zones.
The agreement was signed by the Iranian
President's Advisor and Secretary of Free Zones Coordination Council
Akbar Torkan and the Armenian Minister of Economic Development and
Investments Suren Karayan.
During the signing ceremony, relevant economic
directors of both countries presented reports on talks held in the joint
workshops in the field of collaboration between trade, industrial and
tourism free zones.
Armenian minister described Torkan’s visit to the
country as opening a new chapter in bilateral relations in different
fields, particularly in the fields of economy and trade as well as
cooperation between free trade and special economy zones.
The two sides also agreed to activate potentials of cooperation between the two countries’ trade zones
