ArmInfo.Member of the planning and budget commission in the Iranian parliament, Hadi Gavami, said that it is necessary to strengthen cooperation between Iran and Armenia in order to invest in the Aras and Meghri free zones. This is the Iranian news agency Mehr.
According to the official, the strengthening of economic diplomacy with neighboring countries will help significantly diversify and create additional value in the country.
In particular, by creating equipped refineries in free economic zones, one can gain a large income. Hadi Gavami recalled that at present Iranian gas is supplied in exchange for electricity from Armenia, and by expanding cooperation in fuel supplies, many problems that may arise in the future due to sanctions can be solved. "As soon as we can create a refinery with a capacity of 200,000 barrels in the Araks and Meghri free zones, the country will receive huge revenues," an Iranian official said.
