BERNAMA - Iran Seeks To Boost Barter Trade With Pakistan

TEHRAN, July 17 (Bernama) -- There are no obstacles for Iran to expand its barter trade, especially with Pakistan, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said during a recent meeting with a visiting Pakistani delegation here.

He said Iran imports some US$80 billion worth of goods each year, and is willing to boost its imports from Pakistan, Iran's Mehr News Agency (MNA) reported.

President Ahmadinejad further stated that Iran is ready to export energy and products to Pakistan, while at the same time sharing scientific and technological expertise with the Muslim nation.

The Pakistani delegation stressed that Islamabad seeks the promotion of ties and cooperation with Iran within a defined regional framework, and appreciates Tehran's assistance in this regard.

Iran and Pakistan have the potential to boost their bilateral trade to US$10 billion annually from the current level of around US$1 billion, Iranian ambassador to Pakistan Alireza Haqiqian said in May.

It is a shame that their trade is only at $1 billion. Nonetheless both countries should take advantage of this and bolster trade.

I'm not sure how feasible this is, it is one thing to export consumer goods it is another thing to see how the local markets will respond to them once they are available for sale. I'm not sure Pakistani products will be received well in Iran; perhaps a few may become marketable and achieve significant sale and generate revenue...

Meanwhile, forget this news focus on this, this is the big news...
