A $90 million reduction in foreign exchange costs by removing barriers to shipping in the Caspian Sea.
A special government representative should be appointed for the northern ports.
Bandani, Chairman of the Agriculture Committee at the Chamber of Commerce of Iran, in an interview with Tasnim News:
🔹Removing shipping barriers in the Caspian Sea and reducing transportation costs can ease the pressure on the country's foreign exchange resources.
🔹By transporting a million tons of goods and optimizing transportation costs, it is possible to cut foreign exchange expenses by approximately 90 million dollars.
🔹 Fuel costs, provisions and staff wages increased shipping expenses.
🔹In order to deal with challenges in this sector, a unified command structure is needed in the government, together with a special representative charged with identifying and eliminating barriers to sailing in the Caspian Sea. 🔹 Considering the growing importance of trade through the northern ports, the government must appoint a senior and independent expert to oversee controversial issues related to the Caspian Sea.
