In another phone conversation on Friday, Vaezi discussed similar issues with Turkey's Trade Minister Ruhsar Pekcan.
During the talk, they expressed resolve to tackle the problems of the hundreds of trucks that have been stopped at their borders. They promised to provide grounds for vehicles carrying perishable products to continue their trips within two days to help continue the transit process within the framework of the Health Protocol.
