The exported volume registered a decline of 33 percent in terms of weight and a 21 percent fall in terms of value due to the outbreak of the lethal coronavirus outbreak, he added.
Iraq, Turkey, Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, and Armenia have been the main export destinations of goods exported from west Azerbaijan, he said.
