Tehran-Ankara passenger trains have not been available since 2015 due to attacks by PKK terrorists. As a result of the successful operations carried out by Turkey and Iran, the region has reached a peaceful environment and train services have started again.

Last night the passenger train from Tehran successfully carried out the trial run to Van Station . First train has 5 wagons and a capacity of 200 people.

The passenger train, which performs its first test journey after 4 years, will continue its daily services between Tehran and Ankara from next week.Turkey and Iran aimed at the development of relations between peoples.

The city of Van was a popular shopping destination for our Iranian brothers and sisters. However, besides Van, summer tourism is also in demand especially in areas like Antalya Mersin, in recent years . On the other side, cultural tours organized to Iran, have become increasingly popular in Turkey. The re-activation of the Tahran-Ankara railway and the integration of the Turkish and Iranian railway system will affect our trade as well as accelerate our cultural integration.

Sometimes I forget, how poor the Iranians actually are. Though it depends on how you define poor. They're the richest country in the region - even richer than SA - and at the same time they're just a tad ahead of Iraq - a war-torn country - when it comes to infrastructure and similar categories. The current state of Iran is very saddening.
 
we should have better

Why are you picking the Gulfies as an example to underline your argument?

China, Russia, EU, Japan, South Korea and hopefully Indonesia and all the others are proving that one can achieve a high level of social development and national wealth without selling your own soul to the US. You don't have to lick American boots to be successful.

You're poor, underdeveloped and behind in every category of human development? It's your fault. Deal with it instead of crying. Same goes for Turkey, Pakistan and any other nation.

Iran's PPP is 19 000

turkeys is under 28 000

the way your pitying Iran one would think its on the brink of starvation or something.. your barely better off.

Iran is facing the harshest economic sanctions known in modern history. half these sanctions would turn turkey into Somalia.

Iran and Turkey with everything being equal and without sanctions wouldn't even be close. we were doing better then Persian gulf monarchies when we had the same political status pre-revolution.

keep your pity to yourself please.

You're talking nonsense. Iran is incredibly underdeveloped and poor compared to Turkey and this has been told to me many times by your own countrymen.

Iran doesn't deserve pity, she has chosen this path and your country is just a mirror of your bad choices.

Iran has resources like no other country of this entire planet and if you can't utilize it, it's your fault.

Stop whining and go out demonstrating against your shitty regime.

PPP is the most accurate measurement of an average citizens living standards.... but your right. a friend of a friend, told you some story and that holds more weight.... ok then. turkey is Switzerland and Iran is congo.

your right Iran has resources like no country. that's why its attracted foreign vultures into Iran. that's why Iran is suffering from economic depression. Foreign vultures like the US see Iran as their property and will do anything they can to try and get it back. that includes using their finanacial levers in the world economy.

unforutantley for them... theres 1 other thing besides economic prosperity that Iranians strongly value.

Independence and self dignity. Iran will never surrender its sovereignty and independence for temporary economic prosperity.
 
The Iranians can feast on their dignity and enjoy long vacations on their sovereignty while the Saudis are studying in America and partying in Europe. And yes, Turkey is decades ahead of Iran if we compare our rural regions.

Enjoy your independence while your leadership is indulging in Made in America goods and services.

Turkey's geography and climate are the same as European countries, and the Iranians really enjoy this climate, but Iran has mostly has Middle Eastern climate. BTW very beautiful country you have there.

its not an argument its a fact..

also I made shure to use the gulfies as an excample because this may give insight to what I want to tell you..

in order to show extreems you need to take out the best suitable excample.. do you think amis would sell turkey thaad? or f15 ? why does our money stink and not the money from gulf states? there is an answer you know and I know and every sane person knows this..

if we would face iranian sanction from the rest of the world we have no oil like them we would have massive problems.. I am not talking about cultural and social or political bullshit that happens.. this are different things

or you have to say it loud what you think if you mean they should have step back with all the anti israel nonsense with wicht they hurt themselves for arab favor.. or just any other discomfort


Turkey's geography and climate are the same as European countries

from where did you get that? wich european climate do you mean?


You're poor, underdeveloped and behind in every category of human development? It's your fault. Deal with it instead of crying. Same goes for Turkey, Pakistan and any other nation.

what should I do with that now? tell me

why is it that our products arnt be bought in masses abroad?
why is it that arabs wont buy turkish military equipment its our fault?
what would happen if you have tanks, advanced ammunition, missles, helicopters and planes that would not be baught?
what would happen if you have goods that would not be baught abroad?
if you get santioned, its what can happen to turkey than you will be sanctioned and you cant do much about it except to bow down.. I give you an excample many germans say that they boycott turkey.. so even if you are cheaper better you wont reach this ppl! you may be one of those with wishfull thinking that turkey or any other state filled with muslims could be an independend world class state just like germany, france or britain..
I say not with western powers.. if any muslim inhabited country would want to be like this they need support from other muslim states they need to buy their stuff and its also needed to look for others and diversyfy your trades and partners as much as you can because europeans wont buy your stuff if you get serious power..

Have you ever been in Iran?
I invite you to Iran and then you are free to speak about our country??
We are not seeking to be like west to called develop country, we have our own way, and we are trying hard to build infrastructures w/o help from outside.

Iranian cities are very modern

Istanbul to Tehran railway sounds amazing

dont really know what your obsession is with trying to prove that turkey is alot richer then Iran. the average turk barely has a better living standard then the average Iranian. this with the mentioned sanctions.... but if it makes you feel better, then have at it.

When Iran gets recognized as the regional power (as obama, and virtually anyone not named trump were about ready to accept reality and do) we will have both economic prosperity and independence.

sacrificing independence for a slave type economy thats completely in the hands of the americans while being vassals... is not worth it.

Turkey can be brought to its knees tommorows by a single order from trump.. they have thrown everthing they had at us for 40 years.... and still we stand.

Iran has trillions of dollars of energy reserves along with many other favorable economic conditions ready to explode at any time. Turkey would be lucky to hold its ground and not collapse economically, politically, or socially within the next decade.

i wouldnt celebrate too hard if i were you
