Minister of Industry: Since November 4, this year, compared to last year, our daily imports have increased from 95,000 tons to 101,000 tons, and in some days even to 308,000 tons.

According to the International Iranian Stone Exhibition, Alireza Razm Hosseini said at the National Export Day ceremony: "Fortunately, exporters are allowed to fulfill their foreign exchange obligations through the Nima system or import versus export. The comprehensive trade system is also active."

He added: "Since November 4, this year, compared to last year, our daily imports have increased from 95,000 tons to 101,000 tons, and even up to 308,000 tons on some days."

He continued: "Since November 13, when the 177th government decree was implemented, 10 billion and 300 million dollars have been registered in the comprehensive trade system, and of this amount, 3 billion dollars has been registered as the final order." By the end of the year, we will definitely have an increase in exports, and this deficit of $ 1.6 billion in the trade balance will decrease.

"We consider it necessary to consult with the private sector," he said, emphasizing the need to prevent the creation of directives. To date, we have prevented the issuance of circular hourly directives and will continue to do so.

Razm Hosseini said about transparency and timely information: The Ministry of Silence does not have a news agency, but some institutions do. We are looking to remove the golden signature and we hope that the media and cooperation. We do not have an export ban and we do not prohibit the export of any goods. Some directives are from the past that need to be resolved.

He added: "In the case of steel, I do not agree with the pricing, and in the case of currency, this is the opinion. In other countries, only the price floor is determined and the price becomes final in the competition." It should be noted that 40% of the country's GDP comes from the Ministry of Silence.
