Iran’s Oil Export Reaching Pre-Sanction Level: President

9 May 2016 - 11:14


May, 08, 2016 - Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said the country’s exports of oil will be soon equal to the level of pre-sanctions era, noting that part of the banking problems will be also fixed.
In an address to a meeting of the administration and the incoming parliament, held in Tehran on Saturday night, President Rouhani said the oil exports will increase to the previous levels soon.
A host of Western sanctions against Tehran had caused Iran’s crude production to drop by about one million barrels a day in recent years.
But achievement of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), a lasting nuclear deal between Iran and the Group 5+1 (Russia, China, the US, Britain, France and Germany), terminated all nuclear-related sanctions on Iran.
The agreement has taken effect on January 16.
Before the sanctions were lifted, Iran said it had made the necessary preparations to boost its oil production capacity to pre-sanctions levels.
Elsewhere in his remarks, President Rouhani said part of the existing banking problems will be also resolved and the other obstacles will be removed gradually.
The comments come against the backdrop of growing concerns that the JCPOA has not led to any major breakthroughs in Iran’s financial transactions with foreign banks and companies.
Earlier in April, Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei said major global banks’ reluctance to work with Iran results from Washington’s intimidating policies and its push for provoking Iranophobia.
