The head of the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Trade said that the main way to boost production is to strengthen and develop non-oil exports. They will be less.

According to the International Stone Exhibition of Iran, Hossein Modarres Khiabani, in a meeting with the Board of Directors of the Tehran Chamber of Commerce, Industries, Mines and Agriculture, said that today it is not possible to run the country without the presence of the private sector. And it is virtually impossible for the mutation of production and export to be possible without the help of the Chamber of Commerce and without regard to economic and private enterprises; Because the government alone is not able to achieve this goal and has no tools other than policy.

The head of the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Trade added: "At times, the government had many tools through which it could regulate the market." But today, the government has no tools other than policy-making and has ceded all the tools related to market regulation; Therefore, with the cooperation and cooperation of the private sector and guilds, it achieves this serious task and implements its policy set.

Ministry of Silence's clear message to economic activists

He added: "Today's presence in the Iranian Chamber of Commerce, Industries, Mines and Agriculture has a clear message for economic activists that we need the help of the private sector to manage the country and achieve the goal of jumping production and boosting exports."

According to Modares Khiabani, the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Trade's major programs in the new era are "production jump", "strengthening and deepening domestic production", "export development and import control", as well as "market management and regulation". Production leaps will not be achieved unless export development takes place; Because many policymakers and economists believe that new demand cannot be imagined in the domestic market, it is necessary to open accounts in foreign markets in order to sell products that are made through the policy of production mutations in factories.

The lights on the foreign trade route will be green only in the export sector

He said: "Import management is one of the serious agendas of the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Trade, which means that the only green route for import is related to the import of raw materials for production and equipment and machinery needed by factories, otherwise the path ahead. Importing the country will be a rocky and challenging route that leads to a dead end, a ban on the import of unnecessary and similar domestic items.

The head of the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Trade noted that the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Trade will seriously prevent the import of unnecessary goods similar to domestic production, and in this regard, will not allow the import of luxury items in any way.

"Today, the government, institutions and the private sector must work together to succeed," he said. "The media is one of the most powerful tools available to governors, along with all sources of information, finance and nature." It can act as the most powerful resource.

"Today, Corona has entered the world as an international phenomenon and has made it possible to compare the management of governments in equal and non-discriminatory conditions," he said, referring to the outbreak of the corona virus, which has created almost equal conditions around the world. Until now, however, the economic situation in Iran has not been comparable to any other country in the world or even competitors in the region, because due to the restrictions imposed by sanctions, the country is facing an uneven path to production and export, and Iranian producers and exporters to none. The title is not on par with other countries in the world and their competitors Their analogy with others is different.

"At the same time, when the same-sex external variable is introduced all over the world, it will be possible to make comparisons. Accordingly, Iran will do well in managing the corona prevalence period, and especially in providing logistics for medical staff support," said the street teacher. He has acted and has come out of this campaign proud.

We must take great steps in the Iranian economy with empathy and cooperation

The head of the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Trade added: "Corona is a good opportunity to review the field of understanding the capabilities of the Islamic Republic of Iran at home and abroad, and therefore should be managed as a period of empathy and cooperation." Continuing the path of the country's economy in the current difficult conditions, with the same empathy and day and night efforts will be smoother.

"We believe that producers and consumers are completely complementary, not counterproductive," said the street teacher. This means that if there is no consumer, the producer will not be able to survive, and on the contrary, if there is no producer or is not working, it will be difficult to meet the needs of consumers, so supporting production is the same as consumer protection and support. Consumers are supported by the manufacturing sector.

Prohibitions on exports this year will be lower than before

He promised economic activists that the bans and restrictions on non-oil exports would be managed more than ever this year; In other words, given the country's need for export currencies, the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Trade will provide the conditions for the growth and development of non-oil exports and, consequently, the leap in production.

According to Modares Khiabani, the return of foreign exchange from exports is a principle accepted by the private sector, and none of the economic actors with transparent activities refuse to return the currency from their exports. Accordingly, in addition to paving the way for the return of foreign exchange earned from exports, the main effort should be to provide an opportunity for foreign exchange to be spent more than ever to meet the needs of production and the country's import needs.

Emphasizing that good decisions should be made in due time, he said: "In the current situation, all the efforts of the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Trade are to make timely, accurate decisions and taking into account the conditions of all stakeholders." Decisions must be made by the private sector and economic actors.

The street teacher reiterated that the policy of the Ministry of Industry in issuing directives and instructions is predictable, and that it should be communicated to the private sector and stakeholders at least one month before the implementation of any decision.

Defending the impact of export duties on iron ore, he said: "The imposition of tariffs on iron ore exports not only prevented the sale of raw materials, but also sharply increased the export of ingots and steel products and increased appropriateness to increase value added." He won the country.

"The priority of the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Trade is production and export, along with special attention to job creation, in the sense that maintaining existing employment and increasing it is one of the main priorities of this ministry, which is highly cared for," said the street teacher. And the emphasis is on.

He said: "Consultations between the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Trade for the exemption of 20% of exporters from the return of foreign exchange from exports in the process of resolving the foreign exchange commitment continue with the Central Bank and we hope to implement this issue as soon as possible. However, exporters in target export markets have a number of acceptable costs that can be acceptable.
