The Deputy Minister said that the investment in the amount of $6.5 billion, stipulated in the previously signed memorandum of understanding, was transformed into the form of a contract.

“Hopefully, the remaining $40 billion memorandums will be converted into contracts next month, negotiations continue,” said Safari.
