The head of National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC) has dismissed reports circulating on social media claiming a decline in the country's crude oil exports as "false and baseless."
Speaking on a televised program, Hamid Bovard said, “Iran’s crude oil exports remain at the same levels as before.”
“We are in a good position regarding crude oil sales and exports,” Bovard added, emphasizing there is no cause for concern over the current trajectory of Iran's oil trade.
Refuting allegations of reduced exports, Bovard stated, “The claims of a decline are simply untrue.”
His remarks came in response to recent reports on social media suggesting a drop in Iran’s crude oil sales and export levels.
