Iran seek European investments despite US threats

A strong turnout at a car show in the Iranian capital Tehran and small business festival highlight optimism in the Iranian economy, despite US warnings against investment in the country.

The Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson, told European countries to avoid investing in Iran, but Iranians are asking European businesss to judge for themselves.

Investments in a country such as Iran could be way more profitable compared to many developed countries; lower taxes, less legal limitations and considering its economic and political isolation, it tries to attract more foreign investors, so Iran offers them much more than many other countries!
