Uzbekistan and Iran have set an ambitious goal to increase their bilateral trade turnover to $2 billion. The issue was a key focus of discussions held in Tehran between the delegation of the Uzbek government, led by Prime Minister Abdulla Aripov, and the Iranian delegation, headed by First Vice President Mohammad Reza Aref.
