Khansari made the remarks in the opening ceremony of the Conference on Iran-Eurasia Relations on Wednesday.
Pointing to the progress of science and technology in recent years, he said that this growth not only has increased trade in the world but it has also increased the income and welfare of the people.
Given the importance of the competitive economy in the world, he added that a Eurasian union was formed in East Asia that was able to solve security issues and economic challenges.
Referring to the “one-belt-one-road” approach which could be a successful model between countries for the development of regional peace, Khansari said that Iran hopes that countries that are members of this union and are neighbors with Iran would have more ties with each other.
Eurasia is the largest continental area on Earth, comprising all of Europe and Asia. Primarily in the Northern and Eastern Hemispheres, it is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the west, the Pacific Ocean to the east, the Arctic Ocean to the north, and by Africa, the Mediterranean Sea, and the Indian Ocean to the south.
