By Micah Halpern
Thursday April 20, 2006 I've Been Thinking: Iran-Khodro is the Iranian equivalent of Ford Motors. The Iranians just sent out a press release announcing that Iran-Khodro has finished building a plant in Syria and, in a few months, they will move toward their goal of producing 5,000 Samands per year. Imagine Volkswagen opening a plant in Mexico, or a Cadillac rolling out in Germany. This is an enormous step by Iran. Syria benefits tremendously by this arrangement. Why is Iran building a plant in Syria? Iran is an industrialized country with sophisticated hi-tech and low-tech industry. In this region, a little economic assistance translates into enormous political power. 4 June 2017 12:14 PM in Thoughts
