The Union of Chambers & Commodity Exchanges of Turkey (TOBB) will promote the “3rd Iraqi International Fair” which will take place in Turkish southeastern province of Gaziantep.

TOBB Chairman Rifat Hisarciklioglu, Turkish State Minister Kursad Tuzmen, Iraqi Ambassador in Ankara Sabah Omran as well as many Iraqi officials will attend the introductory press conference in Ankara on Thursday.

The fair –which will be held between May 22nd and 25th, 2008– is the only fair which Iraqi Trade Ministry supports abroad.

The trade volume between Turkey and Iraq has reached 2.5 billion USD in 2007. Iraq is considered as one of the biggest commercial partners of Turkey.

More than 900 companies from 30 countries participated in last year’s fair.
