Why is everyone talking about blocs? Isn't Iran a NAM member state?

We are our own bloc

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iran and Turkey signed a number of agreements to promote cooperation in agriculture, including a road map to “strategic partnership” in this field.

The documents were signed by agriculture ministers of the two countries at the conclusion of the 6th session of a joint strategic committee on Iran-Turkey agricultural cooperation, held in Ankara on Friday.

Under the agreements, the two neighbors will cooperate on farm animal quarantine practices and will also work together within the framework of a “road map to strategic agricultural cooperation.”

In an address to a ceremony after inking the deals, Iranian Agriculture Minister Mahmoud Hojjati said Iran and Turkey can complement each other in the economic sector, saying three bilateral agreements in less than six months signify determination on part of both sides for closer cooperation.

For his part, Turkey’s Minister of Food, Agriculture and Livestock Faruk Celik underscored that agriculture should make up an appropriate share in the volume of bilateral trade, which is expected to reach $30 billion.

Iran and Turkey have ramped up efforts in recent months to boost bilateral trade after implementation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), a lasting nuclear deal between Iran and the Group 5+1 (Russia, China, the US, Britain, France and Germany).

Turkey and Iran should build on their shared $100-billion agricultural output, a senior government minister said on Wednesday.

Speaking at a joint news conference in Ankara alongside Iranian Agriculture Minister Mahmoud Hojjati, Turkey's Minister of Food, Agriculture and Livestock, Faruk Çelik emphasized potential opportunities offered by agricultural trade.

"We have decided to enhance collaboration in the agriculture sector to increase the trade volume between Turkey and Iran from $10 billion to $30 billion," said Çelik.

Çelik remarked there was more potential for business as the total population of Turkey and Iran is around 160 million.

"For Turkey, Iran is a gate opening to Asia, and for Iran, Turkey is a gate opening to Europe. Considering the regional conflicts, we should focus on how to improve this potential together instead of concerning [ourselves with] unessential issues," Çelik said.

Çelik said transportation problems in agricultural trade were also discussed during Wednesday's meeting, and added: "The two countries will share their own experiences for modernization of the agriculture sector."

"Our region is in a ring of fire. If only we talked about agriculture in Damascus, Aleppo and Mosul, instead of terror… The unity of the Muslim world is essential," the Turkish minister added.

'We are always grateful to Turkey'

Hojjati said Turkey and Iran had been collaborating on political and economic areas as two friendly countries.

"Turkey gave significant support to us during the embargo period, hence we are always grateful to Turkey," said Hojjati.

"Similarly, Iranian officials did not sleep a wink when that treacherous coup bid was performed against Turkey, and they announced support for Turkey," Hojjati added.

The Iranian minister said Turkey and Iran had the potential to complement each other in terms of agricultural trade, and added: "We will try to seize this potential."

Hojjati also said businesspeople from both countries during this week's visit had made very fruitful talks and wanted to lead permanent collaboration.

Commenting on regional conflicts, Hojjati said: "Making violence, which does not accord with Islam, in the name of Islam is worrying. Islam is a religion of mercy that promotes toleration and unity."

I welcome it, business is always good but I really hate government of turkey.

As Arminkh and Mike have said, just because we are from different "blocs" doesn't mean we can't do business. China being a shining example.

If some paranoid people had their way we wouldn't do trade with half the world.

People have to consider that countries join blocs like NATO for different reasons. Just because a country is in NATO doesn't mean it is in NATO to fight Iran. India has sweeping military cooperation with Israel, but we do huge business with them.

You have to understand that no country resists investment. That's ridiculous. You need to study the workings of this before you make a comment based on emotions. Investment gets you jobs, technology and experience. It is not infiltration.

I believe we should have trade with all of the world but we should be careful about 2 countries. 1. Saudia 2. Turkey

We have almost no ties with saudia but Turkey is not that different from saudia. They have there own goals in our friends countries such as Iraq & Syria. Their interests are against our interests. They make troubles in Iraq & Syria. They and their American ally want anti Iranian Sunni governments in Iraq & Syria. We have seen what Turks have done to Iraq & Syria in recent 5 years. They even claim some parts of Iraq & Syria belong to Turkey!

The turkish government is not trustable we should trade with all of the world (all of countries) but keep our distance with TERRORIST government of Turkey.

Bloods of thousands Iraqis & Syrians is on hands of akp. They have showed their real faces! They are servant of the US, if the US want them to damage Iran they will do. We should be pragmatic not naive. No offense to anyone.

Anyway I hope Turkey change it's role in ME but I'm not that optimistic about this matter.

By that reasoning the Chinese are the biggest fools out there, since they have been allowing Western companies to invest massively in their country for decades now and they have benefited(and still do) from it enormously as well. WIN-WIN for both sides.
latest one is this Beoing opening its first manufacturing facility outside the U.S in China http://www.bostoncommons.net/boeing-to-build-its-first-offshore-plane-factory-in-china/
European Airbus already has a factory in China.http://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...stle-for-china-friendship-and-aircraft-orders

Seriously Iranians and your Mullahs in particular should stop their empty rhetoric and cooperate with western powers or any other country for that matter.. If China and even Russia(who are wayyyyyy ahead of Iran in every field) can cooperate with western powers when needed for their national interests/well being, then what chance does Iran stands of acting alone differently?lol As i said several times before, Iran is no position to challenge the west in any field. So its good to make some rants and propaganda once in a while for local public, but the country's leaders should know when to tone things down and be pragmatic when needed like the Chinese often do.That's how mature powers behave. Never let emotions/ideology get in the way of business.We live in the age of globalization dude.
Money talks, bullshit walks.

globalization is just an excuse to bow to Bullies, it's absolutely a political term. your understanding of politics is really primitive and immature, else you wouldn't compare Iran with China, a country with one fifth of the world's population and a permanent UNSC member with the VETO right.

Ideologies (beyond the superficial names, where you define your morality and your relation with God) are ruling the world, but propaganda doesn't let you to see it.
as Modarres a famous Iranian politician/mullah has said, our ideology is our politics and our politics is our ideology; and I can say the same about the whole world.

That's why China's policies can easily consist with those of west, that's why China can have warm relations with Israel (a child murder regime) and Iran can't, that's why China doesn't care about Saudi's crime in Yemen, but Iran cares. "in politics don't care about God's orders" is an ideology itself. so you are expressing your ideology even when you suggest people to not care about their ideology.

notice that what I'm saying right now is the top figure in understanding the politics. in lower levels there are other factors like geopolitics and isms. and you can see how the first level affects and ignores the lower ones.
This way you can understand why eliminating just one man (in Syria) who is apparently a secular (a kind of Muslim which west loves) becomes so important for west.

and now back to your comparison and examples, it's not like we haven't tried your theories, there were and are people in Iran (and you can see some instances in this forum) with your mentality too, Mullah or not-mullah.
we were heavily cooperating with French Peugeot in Iran, they were selling their outdated junks in Iran's monopoly market, without bringing any investment, it was a pure profit for Peugeot and France (to extent which me and many Iranian consider it a one way profit) yet as soon as U.S asked, they halted all of their cooperations, thousands people became unemployed both in Iran and France. about 10000 workers were fired in France.
so you see, your WIN-WIN theory, your "Never let emotions/ideology get in the way of business" theory, your "Money talks" theory all failed.
all failed cause there are other more important matters in politics and no, it wasn't nuclear.
