Iran and Syria signed on December an agreement for a long-term strategic cooperation; the agreement constitutes a comprehensive cooperation at the financial and banking levels, and contributes to facilitating trade exchange and overcoming obstacles that hinder upgrading the cooperation between the two countries.
The agreement is under consideration by the expert groups, to be prepared for being signed by Iranian and Syrian presidents.
