Iran seeking observer status in EAEU

Iran’s Ambassador to Moscow Kazem Jalali said that the Islamic Republic is seeking to gain an observer status in the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) in the near future.
Jalali made the remark at the second International Russia-Iran Cooperation in the Changing World, which was held in the presence of a group of Iranian and Russian experts in Moscow on Thursday, IRNA reported.
He also expressed hope that a free trade agreement, which Iran and the EAEU signed in late December, is implemented as soon as possible following approval by parliaments of the member states of the EAEU.
The ambassador further pointed out to the International North-South Transport Corridor (INSTC), noting that this megaproject can be beneficial for EAEU members economically and would help boost security and peace in the region.
