“According to the previous agreement signed in this regard and despite the problems residing in the MoU, we offer the necessary support to hold the exhibition preserving the dignity of the Islamic Republic of Iran,” he added.
Piltan maintained that the economic exchanges between the two countries have shown a growing trend adding “each country’s turnover has been 400 million dollars and the six-month statistics indicate a 12 per cent growth in Iran’s exports to Oman.”
