Iran-Ghana-Osei-Adjei
Ghanaian Foreign Minister Akwasi Osei-Adjei said Tuesday that his country provides a suitable venue for Iranian businessmen's presence in and entry to West Africa.
"Ghana is an excellent target for investment and can provide the possibility for entry of Iranian investors to a region with a population of 250 million in West Africa," said Osei-Adjei in an address to the inaugural session of the Third Iran-Ghana Joint Economic Cooperation Commission.
He said that Iran-Ghana commercial transactions' volume is still in very low and hoping that Tehran session will create grounds for expanding mutual cooperation by offering suitable proposals.
He regretted the failure to implement many agreements reached at the Second Iran-Ghana Joint Economic Cooperation Commission session in 2002 and hoped that four working groups will try to prepare necessary grounds for expansion of bilateral cooperation in the fields of oil and gas, agriculture, banking and finance, health, science, technology, transportation and investment.
He hoped for cooperation with Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) as well as sharing experience in shipping, scientific, technical and educational fields.
