“No country will be successful unless it attaches importance to its producers and investors,” Es’hagh Jahangiri said on Saturday evening at a local ceremony.
Jahangiri visited southern Kerman Province to take part in the unveiling ceremony of Hyundai Accent assembled by local carmaker Kerman Motor.
Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei named Iran's New Year which started on March 20 the year of 'Support for Iranian Products'.
During his speech, Jahangiri said the Iranian producers expect anti-smuggling policies and actions and stressed that the foreign investors should cooperate with Iranian producers.
As an important strategic country which enjoys rich oil and gas reserves and young population, Jahangiri added, Iran encourages foreigners to make investment in the country.
About Iran's international relations, the first vice-president said Tehran is after dialogue and willing to have good interactions with the outside world.
