By Mehdi Sepahvand - Trend:

Oman is going to provide special facilities for Iranian tradesmen to ease their business in the country, Omani Foreign Minister Yusuf bin Alawi said in a meeting with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani in Tehran.

He attached high significance to Iran-Oman cooperation in the field of energy, adding the two countries are able to complement each other economically, Tasnim news agency reported February 21.

The Iranian president, for his part, said Iran is ready to facilitate the affairs of Omani businessmen in the Islamic Republic.

"The private sector can expand their work in the areas of aviation, ports, railroads, and banking," Rouhani said.

He added Tehran-Muscat cooperation in energy possesses strategic significance.

Alawi is leading a business delegation to Iran. The annual trade turnover between Iran and Oman in recent years has stood at about $400 million.

Oman played a key role in bringing Iran and the US together for nuclear talks, which ended in lifting economic sanctions on the Islamic Republic.
