Polish Delegation in Iran to Discuss Trade Opportunities

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Poland has sent a high-level delegation, including pharmaceutical, chemical and railway executives, to Iran in a bid to explore trade opportunities created following the July 14 nuclear agreement between Iran and world powers, a report said.

Poland’s Economy Minister Janusz Piechocinski is heading a group with representatives of some 60 Polish businesses, including railway manufacturers Newag and Pesa, Reuters reported on Friday. 

Poland is interested in exporting foodstuffs as well as home appliances and furniture to the Islamic Republic, Piechocinski told reporters before boarding the flight to Tehran.

"Our countries could also cooperate in oil and gas exploration, mining and energy efficiency sectors," he said.

The polish traders have joined a string of Western states hoping to exploit opportunities opened by the conclusion of nuclear talks between Iran and the Group 5+1 (Russia, China, the US, Britain, France and Germany) on July 14.

The comprehensive nuclear deal between Iran and the six powers would terminate all nuclear-related sanctions imposed on Iran after coming into force.
