TEHRAN- Iran and South Korea have maintained economic and diplomatic ties for decades, navigating sanctions, geopolitical shifts, and regional turbulence. In an interview with Tehran Times, Pooya Firoozi, First Vice Chairman of the Iran-South Korea Chamber of Commerce, discusses how the joint chamber is working to preserve this vital bridge during the current circumstances—not by waiting for conditions to improve, but by actively preparing Iran for the future opportunities. From transferring South Korea’s development know-how and publishing specialized reports to identifying new industrial capacities and fostering provincial partnerships, Firoozi outlines a forward-looking strategy that goes beyond humanitarian projects and aims to transform a fragile connection into a lasting corridor for trade, technology, investment, and human collaboration.
