Iran Press/ Iran news: In an exclusive interview with Iran Press News Agency, Aikawa Kazutoshi clarified the possible grounds of cooperation between Iran and Japan and said: "Iran has huge potential, educated people and many natural sources that create lots of opportunities for more cooperation."
Right now, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), sanctions and the COVID-19 pandemic has created some challenges in Iran-Japan cooperation, but we can address those barriers together, he added.
