This transpired after a meeting between Bulgarian President Rosen Plevneliev and the President of Iran Hassan Rouhani held during the UN General Assembly session in New York. Plevneliev and Rouhani stated that it was important to enhance trade, economic and investment cooperation after the lifting of the sanctions imposed on Iran.
