Luckily, thanks God, Iran and Armenia do not have any issues, Iranian
Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi told at a joint news conference
with his Armenian counterpart Edward Nalbandian. “We are planning to
develop and expand more bilateral relations,” he stressed, adding that
according to presented statistical information the number of tourists
visiting Armenia passes 100 thousand. “I hope the day will come when
1 million tourists will visit Armenia,” Salehi said, expressing hope
that non-visa regime will be established between the two countries.
He also highly rated the trade potential existing between the two
countries and noted that it is not being fully used. “We hope the
trade turnover between our countries will reach 300 million USD, this
amount is not acceptable. Armenia has a big potential for exporting
products to Iran, and we are willing to import these products,”
he said. According to him, the technical issues must be studied by
specialists and experts.
