Iran plans to sign a memorandum of understanding with the Eurasian
Economic Union (EEU) in 2015 to facilitate mutual customs trade,
according to Iranian Ambassador to Russia Mehdi Sanaei.
Sanaei said that the Iranian Ministry of Industry, Mining and Trade
has been negotiating with the EEU to reduce customs duties between Iran
and the EEU member states, the IRNA news agency reported on Wednesday.
"I think that in 2015 we need to work on this so that Iran has concrete
economic contracts with the EEU... Iran plans to use this opportunity
for its exports to Russia and other [countries]," Sanaei told RIA
Novosti in an interview.
"It's possible that some sort of contract or memorandum on mutual
understanding needs to be signed," the ambassador added.
He said that currently there are high tariffs on Iranian exports
to Russia.
