Selahvarzi made the remarks while speaking in the conference on economic cooperation between Iran’s western province of Lorestan with Iraq and Syria. The conference was held in Korramabad, the capital city of Lorestan Province.

He said that Lorestan’s share of Iran’s exports to Iraq is less than 0.5%.

Lorestan’s share of Iran’s exports to Iraq is not compatible with the province’s capacities, the official said, noting that this share has to grow up to 2%.
