Iran-Pakistan trade targeted to hit dollars three billion a year, Deputy head of Foreign Trade Development Houshang Rezaie Tamrin said on Tuesday.
Tamrin told IRNA that Iran-Pakistan currently stands at less than one billion dollars and planning has been made to augment the figure to three billion dollars in light of abundant opportunities in the field of trade and economic cooperation.
He said common geographical borders as well as religious affinities are among other factors which give impetus to enhance level of trade.
He added that specialized meetings, to be organized by the two sides, would help upgrade knowledge of the two countries’ traders about the grounds for economic cooperation.
He noted that a trade delegation will soon be dispatched to Pakistan later this year for the purpose.
