When the past ICCIMA`s President Mr. Mohammad Nahavandian was in charge, two special delegations went to Poland to expand the economic relations and during these missions some major agreements were signed. Now concerning the last agreement between Iran and the 5+1 group all the ground will be ready to expand our relationships.”
