21 percent of Iran’s non-oil exports sent to Iraq: official

<p style="text-align:left">Some 21 percent of Iran's non-oil exports are destined for Iraq, former Iranian commercial attach&amp;eacute; in Iraq Ebrahim Mohammadrezazadeh said said.

Mohammadrezazadeh, who is currently the chair of Iraq desk at Iran's Chamber of Commerce, said that the UAE, Turkey, China and Iran are the four main importers to Iraq having 25, 18, 17 and 13 percent shares in the Iraqi market, respectively.
Production units need physical presence in Iraq if they aim to stay in the Iraqi market as projects in Iraq cannot be managed from far away, Mohammadrezazadeh said during a meeting of economic operators of Iraq and northern Iranian Province of Alborz on Sunday.
According to IRNA the official added: &ldquo;the Iraqi market is a good opportunity for us and if we hesitate, we will lose this market to other countries."
