Iran Ups Trade Exchanges with Turkey

TEHRAN (FNA)- The value of Iran's trade exchanges with Turkey has amounted to $4bln during the first four months of the current year, showing a 76.22% growth compared with the same period in 2010.
The statistical figures show that Iran and Turkey have great potentials for reaching the 15-billion-dollar figure for their economic relations in the current year.

If this trend continues, the figure will reach $30 billion in three years.

Iran and Turkey have in recent years increased their cooperation in all the various fields of economy, security, trade, education, energy and culture.

The two sides have exchanged several politico-economic delegations during the last few months.

Iranian Economy Minister Seyed Shamseddin Hosseini announced in April that Turkey had replaced Britain as Tehran's fourth trade partner.

"We are very pleased that Turkey has replaced Britain as Iran's fourth economic partner," Hosseini said in a meeting with Turkish State Minister Hayati Yazichi at the time.
