RoydadNaft – <\/a><\/span>\u00a0Iran\u2019s capital Tehran is going to host the next meeting of the Iran-Turkey Joint Economic Committee on December 9, an official with the Iranian Foreign Ministry said.<\/p>\n

Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Economic Diplomacy Seyyed Rasoul Mohajer made the remarks in an interview with IRIB on Sunday on the sidelines of a Meeting of the Foreign Economic Relations Coordination Council.<\/p>\n

Emphasizing that Turkey is a very important trade partner for Iran, he added that trade between Iran and its neighbor exceeds $12 billion annually.<\/p>\n

“Unfortunately, a meeting of the joint commission between Iran and Turkey has not been held in the past three years. So, it was decided at a meeting of the Foreign Economic Relations Coordination Council that this commission meeting would be held in Tehran on December 10,” he said.<\/p>\n

“In the next meeting of the Foreign Economic Relations Coordination Council, the issue of Iran’s joint commissions with Sudan and Yemen will be discussed,” Mohajer said.<\/p>\n

The value of non-oil trade between Iran and Turkey stood at $9.9 billion in the first seven months of the current Iranian calendar year (March 20-October 21), the former head of the Islamic Republic of Iran Customs Administration (IRICA) announced.<\/p>\n

Mohammad Rezvanifar said that Turkey was the second top trade partner of Iran among its neighbors in the seven-month period.<\/p>\n

As previously announced, Iran exported non-oil goods worth $2.4 billion to Turkey in the first half of the current Iranian calendar year (March 20 – September 22).<\/p>\n

Turkey was the fourth export destination of Iran among its other neighbors during the six-month period.<\/p>\n

Iran also imported commodities worth $5.1 billion from Turkey, which made the country the third source of import for Iran in the first half of the year.<\/p>\n
