Ruhollah Latifi, the spokesperson for the Trade Development Commission of Iran's Industry, Mine, and Trade Chamber, has reported that Iran's exports to Afghanistan totalled $520 million in the first three months of this year.

This marks a 33% increase compared to the same period last year.

According to a report from the IRIB News Agency, Latifi projected that Iran's exports to Afghanistan could surpass $2 billion by the end of 2024.

Although the Islamic Republic of Iran, like many other countries, does not officially recognise the Taliban, it continues to maintain extensive diplomatic and economic relations with the group.
