President of the Export Confederation of Iran: Receiving the list of exporters who intended to be on the list of sample exporters in Tehran indicates a dangerous change.

According to the International Iranian Stone Exhibition, Mohammad Lahouti stated in the meeting of the Board of Representatives of the Tehran Chamber of Commerce: According to the plans made on the 4th of Esfand this year, the sample exporters of Tehran province will be introduced. While we received an average of 80 cases for review in previous years, this number has dropped to 40 this year.

He said that this decrease in demand shows the difficulty facing the private sector in the Iranian economy, adding that the serious decrease in the demand for exporters in this process shows that either their activity has decreased or they are so involved in everyday life that they can no longer participate. They do not have such plans, and in any case, such an event would definitely be detrimental to the Iranian economy.

A member of the Tehran Chamber of Commerce, referring to the problems that the country's foreign exchange resources management plan had in the past years, explained: "Unfortunately, during the last three years, about 100 new directives have been issued, many of which violated previous directives. Exporters created to reach a single point. Therefore, after about three years, we have not yet been able to reach a single point regarding the return of currency, and even the export currency of 1397 is still facing ambiguities.

He explained that Minister Samat should follow the joint views of the private sector and the government in this field as soon as possible: "Fortunately, the necessary conclusions have been made in this regard in the Trade Development Organization's foreign exchange committee about two months ago, but we are waiting." We want the government to announce these approvals in order to limit or reduce the problems of exporters in at least one area.
