The Iranian delegation, led by Deputy Minister of Industry, Mining, and Trade Farshad Moghimi, and Russian automotive industry representatives exchanged ideas on how to promote trade, including how Iranian parts manufacturers can meet the needs of the Russian market.

Both sides expressed interest in utilising their capabilities to export cars produced in Iran and Russia to other markets.
