Presidents of the chambers of commerce of Iran and Poland, in an online meeting on Tuesday, explored ways for increasing the level of cooperation between the private sectors of the two sides.
Speaking during the meeting, President of Iran Chamber of Commerce, Industries, Mines, and Agriculture (ICCIMA) Samad Hassanzadeh urged the need for holding specialized exhibitions in both countries to help mobilize the trade potentials for more enhanced interactions.
Noting that Iran and Poland enjoy high potentials for cooperation, he stressed that the level of exchanges between the two countries is far below these potentials.
Referring to US sanctions on Tehran, Hassanzadeh said that the chambers of commerce of Iran and Poland can focus on economic activities to give a boost to bilateral trade cooperation in spite of the sanctions.
He also touched upon Iran’s plans to defuse the effects of sanctions, noting that major trade delegations from different world countries attended Iran Expo 2024 in the Iranian capital last week where they got further familiar with Iran’s exports capabilities.
In the meantime, President of the Polish Chamber of Commerce, Marek Kłoczko, said that the trade potentials of Iran and Poland are much bigger than the existing levels.
He also stressed the need for provincial cooperation between the two countries while acknowledging the restrictions for financial transactions due to US sanctions on Tehran.
Kłoczko invited the Iranian economic actors to travel to Poland so as to discuss the grounds for economic cooperation.
