Hussein Modarres Deputy Minister of Commerce, Hossein Modares Street:

• Yesterday, the export of sponge iron yielded 2%.
• Chairman of the board of directors Imidro has said that we are preparing to import iron ore for next year.
• No common sense says we export all our iron ore.
• If we export all our raw materials, then what should the downstream industries do?
• The average value of exported goods in the country is about $ 2, while the average value of imported products in the country is over $ 2.
• We have actually exported raw materials and imported high value added products and Hyatt.
• The cruelest and most severe sanctions are being imposed on Iran, and Iran is in the worst economic war, and the conditions of our businessmen and producers are nowhere near the same.
