On October 24, Consul General of Iran in Pakistan’s southern city of Karachi said that there is a huge potential to enhance trade exchanges between Iran and Pakistan.
Ahmad Mohammadi said that one of the most important actions for increasing the existing bilateral trade was business communities’ participation in numerous exhibitions being staged either in Iran or Pakistan.
He said that some difficulties, including the lack of banking channels, are hindering smooth trade between the two brotherly countries. "We, at the Iranian Consulate, are very serious towards resolving all the issues so that the bilateral trade and economic relations could be strengthened," he added.
