Tehran (IP) - Iran must be aware of how to play its economic role in the international arena along with its political and security roles, as its former roles are changing, the Iranian Minister of Finance and Economic Affairs said.

Iran PressIran news: Speaking at the economic reforms conference held in Tehran, Ehsan Khandouzi said that with the sanctions imposed on Iran, three things happened for the country, including the change in the political, security, and economic roles in the international arena.

The decrease in the country's surplus currency income allocated for the development of infrastructure and the limitation of access to the world's currencies were the two other happenings he referred to. 

Given the issues that happened, Khandouzi said that the neutralization of the sanctions imposed on Iran would pass through the adoption of due and effective strategy. 

He said that the strategy must simultaneously address three challenges; first the confusion of the political-economic situation in Iran; and the increase in the country's surplus currency income to develop the infrastructure.

The third challenge he mentioned was a new settlement structure with strategic partners, that is to increase Iran's power by role-playing through partners and a new economic belt.

The conference held in Tehran on Monday addresses Iran's reforming of economic structures, resolving discrepancies, and playing a new role in the international arena.
