Iran’s export trend of products to Afghanistan is done slowly, because, truck drivers should first pass the quarantine terms and conditions and then, should be monitored in hygienic terms, he said, adding, “however, Iran’s export of products to Afghanistan has a growing trend in the current year [started March 21, 2020] as compared to the previous year.”
Elsewhere in his remarks, he pointed to the main reason behind Iran’s exports hike to this country and added, “China is one of the most important origins for exporting products to Afghanistan.
