Iran wants Romanian investments in oil and gas industry
Iran wants Romanian investments in oil and gas industry and also in construction, said Iran’s ambassador to Bucharest, Hamid Moayyer. The diplomat mentioned that 150 foreign economic and diplomatic delegations, including European ones, have come so far in Iran, but Romania is still waited. Mister Moayyer also said that Iran and Romania had excellent relations in the past, including in the economic field. „We believe it would be a good idea for Romania to invest in Iran in exploiting oil and gas”, said the Iranian ambassador, „because in this way you could import Iranian natural resources at a much lower price. Romania could also invest in electricity in Iran, specifically in fuel efficiency, in railways, freight cars, road infrastructure, in research, nanotechnology, cybernetics, biotechnology, in construction, such as, for example, hotels and residential areas”.
