10 German Industrial Giants Due in Tehran Today

Sorry but thats highly exaggerated. Though taking loans played a huge part in Turkey development and industrilization, its was the will and planning behind it that really made us into a booming economy. Every nation on earth takes loans, and i can bet all my possesions that Iran will do the same, its neccesary for giving the economy a boost. The problem with such policy is when you go ape-sh!t and take loans and all the while spending it on some BS that will probably never benefit the country in anyway (Greece....). Turkey's national debt is about 40% which is extremely sustainable. As a result however its national GDP nearly reached the magic benchmark of 1 trillion. There is no bubble, thats for banana republics who takes loans and not using it wisely.

There is no absolute black or white in these discussions, everything is in gray scale. What I am seeing is that this gray color more looks like black, and I can bring proofs for my claim, and you may argue that it's closer to white. Let's agree to disagree, specially considering that it would be going off-topic. But, do I consider AKP policies as a good model for Iran? Of course not. Investments needs to be directly directed to Petrochemical complexes, oil wells, expanding southern and South Eastern ports, financing Caspian-Jask pipeline, increasing steel production, financing nano sector, ...

Agreed, however i think taking some notes from AKP's policy is not neccesarily bad. Its true that Iran is a country with alot natural resources (Primary Oil/Gas) however investing in a economy/infrastructure which would be less dependent on these would also be a good way of improving ones economy.

Bordo Enes is right. Whatever anybody thinks of Erdogan, he did free Turkey from the shackles of the IMF and even became a creditor. A country can/should take loans when they have a sound business plan of making back the money and repaying it down the line. Now Turkey and especially Iran can benefit from the AIIB (and the IMF's positive changes in order to compete with the AIIB). The AIIB is more about infrastructure and development, and less about pushing their ideological views on countries.

10 German industrial giants due in Tehran today: Official

Sun Jul 19, 2015 7:30AM

Representatives of 10 German industrial giants are due in Iran next will to discuss cooperation with the Islamic Republic.

A senior official at Iran's Oil Ministry says ten German industrial giants along with tens of smaller companies will arrive in Tehran today to discuss economic cooperation following conclusion of Iran's nuclear talks with the P5+1 group.

According to Iran's deputy oil minister for Europe and Americas, Hossein Esmaeili, this will be the first visit to Iran by a high-ranking European delegation subsequent to recent conclusion of Iran's nuclear talks with the six world powers.

Noting that the delegation will be headed by Germany’s Minister for Economic Affairs and Energy Sigmar Gabriel, the Iranian official said, “Ten companies, which are among the biggest German companies, along with tens of smaller ones will send their representatives to Tehran as members of this delegation.”

Esmaili mentioned Linde, Siemens, Mercedes, BASF, Volkswagen Group, and GIZ as examples of big German companies whose representatives will arrive in Tehran next week.

“Necessary coordination has been made with the officials of the Iran Chamber of Commerce, Industries and Mines (ICCIM), as well as private and public sector companies to engage in constructive talks with German delegates,” Esmaili said.

He added that during their stay in Iran, Gabriel and his accompanying delegation will meet and confer with Iran's oil minister; foreign minister; minister of industry, mine and trade; energy minister and members of ICCIM.

Noting that Germany enjoys high capacity for cooperation with Iran in different industrial fields, the Iranian official said, “This visit will be a turning point in the two countries’ relations, which had been lowered for a while due to certain reasons.”

On July 15, Iran's ambassador to Berlin said Germany will become a trustworthy trade and political partner for Iran once anti-Iran sanctions are lifted following a final nuclear deal.

Speaking to Iranian media, Ali Majedi added that before the imposition of sanctions on Iran, Germany was the Islamic Republic’s second largest trade partner.

On July 14, Iran and the P5+1 group of countries – the US, the UK, Germany, France, China, and Russia – reached the conclusion of negotiations over Tehran’s civilian nuclear program, with the Islamic Republic and the sextet sealing an agreement.

Based on the agreement, Iran and the six powers agreed that all economic and financial sanctions against Iran will be removed through a Security Council resolution. In addition, all bans on Iran’s Central Bank, shipping, oil industry, and many other companies will be lifted.

Germany seeks ‘stable’ economic ties with Iran


Germany’s economy minister and Chancellor Angela Merkel’s deputy says Berlin is after setting up “lasting and stable” economic ties with Iran.

“German companies are not only prepared to sell products to Iran, but also seek to expand lasting and stable economic cooperation (with the country),” Sigmar Gabriel was quoted as saying by the Iranian media on Monday.

The German official also pointed to the long-lasting trade ties between Berlin and Tehran and said German companies are ready to transfer technology and technical know-how to Iran as part of efforts to re-engage with the country on economic matters.

He made the comments during a meeting with Iran’s Petroleum Minister Bijan Zangeneh in Tehran.

The German official also said a ministerial-level meeting of Germany-Iran economic commission would take place early next year in Tehran.

“After the removal of sanctions, German companies will start to cooperate with Iran to modernize the country’s industries,” he noted.

Accompanied by dozens of German business leaders, Gabriel is on an official visit to Iran in a bid to revive trade ties with Tehran.

German exports to Iran reached 4.4 billion euros in 2005 but plunged to 1.8 billion euros eight years later as the US and its Western allies imposed sanctions on Iran over its nuclear program.

German economy and energy minister is the first high-ranking Western official visiting Iran after the conclusion of nuclear talks between Tehran the P5+1 groups of countries.

The talks have been aimed at securing a comprehensive deal which will see all sanctions against Iran removed in exchange for certain curbs on Tehran’s nuclear program.

Many Western companies, including German firms, have already kept a close eye on the final result of the nuclear talks between Iran and the five permanent members of UN Security Council plus Germany, amid rising hopes of returning to the country’s untapped market of 78 million people.
