German Firms Waiting for Iran Sanctions Relief

TEHRAN June 01(Shana)--German companies are waiting for the lifting of sanctions on Iran before they broaden their cooperation, Germany’s ambassador to Tehran said.

“Germany is very interested in cooperating with Iran, but obstacles like sanctions are blocking this expansion of relations,” Michael Freiherr von Ungern-Sternberg said in a meeting with the Kerman Province Chamber of Commerce.

He said Germany used to be Iran’s top trading partner, adding that German Siemens has already cooperated with Iran’s MAPNA.

“If the sanctions are removed we can work on this issue,” he said.

The top diplomat said German firms would rush to invest in Kerman province in southern Iran in case nuclear talks between Iran and six world powers come to fruition.

Sternberg said Germany is experienced in using renewable energies and Kerman enjoys potential in wind and solar energies.
