In Moscow, the Iran Chamber of Cooperatives and Russia's Fund RC-Investments (the Roscongress Foundation's investment platform) inked a commercial cooperation agreement.
The deal was signed by the Iran Chamber of Cooperatives President Bahman Abdollahi and Fund RC-Investments Director Alexander Shatirov.
It aims to strengthen collaboration and economic cooperation between Iranian and Russian business executives, according to the Roscongress website.
“The active participation of the Iranian business community both in international events and in joint Russian-Iranian projects indicates the interest in the development of practical bilateral cooperation.
