Iranian Economy Minister Ali Tayyebnia said that trade between Iran and Iraq is currently estimated at $12 billion when transit and tourism are taken into account, and that Tehran and Baghdad expect to increase the figure to $20 billion in the near future.
The statement followed a meeting with Iraqi Finance Minister Hoshyar Zebari in Tehran.
“We hope this trip will lead to practical outcomes in the development of Iran-Iraq bilateral ties,” the Iraqi finance minister added.
