In the light of efforts by the Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Line Group, Iran has reportedly launched a direct shipping line to Venezuela.
Iran is said to dispatch Golsan ship to Venezuela later this week as the first shipment to the Latin American country.
The way the businesspeople from both sides welcome this shipping line would determine whether it will continue to operate or no.
Iran also plans to send a second ship to Venezuela within two months.
Iran and Venezuela signed a 20-year “cooperation road map” during a state visit by President Nicolas Maduro to Tehran in mid-June as the two oil-rich countries reeling under US sanctions pledged to boost bilateral ties.
