“But there are many unresolved problems and risks along this path,” the economist emphasized.
Amiraghyan emphasized that Tehran is interested in developing its gas infrastructure and expanding opportunities to enter the world market. Iran currently ranks second in the world in terms of gas reserves, second only to Russia.
