War in Ukraine and economic crisis, the entrepreneur Cosulich: “Opportunities for Italy if the sanctions on Iran are lifted”

Genoa – “If the sanctions on Iran were to be lifted, it would be an opportunity for Italian companies. It would help a lot, because it would allow them to export, not only to Fratelli Cosulich, steel, wheat, copper, gas and more”. Augusto Cosulichmanaging director of Fratelli Cosulich relaunches the issue of the end of the sanctions against Iran, linked to the nuclear agreement, which could open up a scenario of alternatives to the supply problems of the industries caused by the Russia-Ukraine war.

He spoke about it on the sidelines of the seminar in Genoa organized by the young people of Assagenti on sea freight rates. “Let us remember that in Iran there is one of the most important steel mills in the world, which would be ready to export its products – he continues -. I tried to push the Italian government as much as possible to promote a cancellation of the sanctions. Things go on, there are continuous meetings and we hope that this will happen in the short term. It would be a nice shot in the arm, even if so far there are no outlets “.

Cosulich brothers had one partnership with Irislthe Iranian state shipping company and a representative office in Tehran and the businessman is ready to resume a series of trade agreements.
