“It has been stipulated in the negotiations that Fiat’s new cars will be produced in Iran and exported to the regional countries. The deal is aimed at joint production rather than imports,” the chairman added. “It has been agreed that Fiat will be in charge of transferring technology and information to Iran; while, Iran will supply human forces and energy.
