Iran Press/ Iran news: Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif stressed on solutions like increasing two-way trade and using the special purpose vehicle, INSTEX, a special mechanism to bypass America's sanctions and enable European companies to do business with Iran and bypass US anti-Iran sanctions.
