Speaking
to NIPNA, Alireza Kokahi Samadi said, "Given that the petrochemical
industry is one of the most important industries in the country, it also
undoubtedly plays an important role in the realization of the principles of
resilient economy."
"Therefore,
the development of this industry is very important. Which should be
considered,” he added.
The
official, referring to regulatory issues and pointing out that a regulatory
body could be the pillar of petrochemical development, he added: "The
regulatory organization as an independent regulatory body whose role is to make
the market competitive and raise the quality of petrochemical products, develops
investment in the petrochemical industry in order to promote the private
sector.”
Samadi
said: "It's important to create a regulatory organization in the
petrochemical industry to fulfill its monitoring, executive, and regulatory
responsibilities regarding petrochemical companies."
Emphasizing
that the petrochemical industry has been a major contributor to the country's
economic development and hard currency generation, especially over the past few
months, the official said that sanctions could create problems, but the US
already knew that imposing sanctions on Iran’s oil and petrochemicals were futile.
