President of the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) Denis Pushilin announced the signing of an agreement under which Tehran will supply the DPR with building materials and agricultural crops such as fruits and vegetables.
"At the Saint Petersburg International Economic Forum, the Donetsk People's Republic Chamber of Commerce and Industry and Farnoush Trade, an Iranian Commercial House, signed an agreement that will promote the development of trade and economic relations between our Republic and the Islamic Republic of Iran," Pushilin wrote on his Telegram channel.
"The Donetsk People's Republic has a new partner today," the president said, adding that "despite hindrances, our international economic relations are expanding."
Pushilin stated that Iran intends to supply the Donetsk People's Republic with building materials, fruit and vegetable products, and that his country intends to export rolled metals, cast iron, fertilizers, steel products, coal mining equipment, not to mention mine working equipment.
In a different context, Pushilin has also announced at SPIEF that the DPR can supply products to Syria through the port of Mariupol most notably grain.
“Taking into account the fact that the liberated seaport of Mariupol has already begun operation, the task is simplified in terms of the logistics component”, said Pushilin.
