“The number of foreign companies are up 35 percent,” to 496 out of the total 1,550, he said.
He said that despite UN sanctions and bilateral punitive measures by the United States and the European Union against Iran, “Germany is present with 64 companies, Italy with 36, Britain with 37, Spain with 14, France with 15 and South Korea with 33 companies.”…
