London, Oct 17, IRNA - The 1st Europe-Iran Forum concluded work in London on Thursday evening local time.

A letter of support released by the IRI President's Chief of Staff Mohammad Nahavandian expressed hope that the forum would present information and opportunities for active international investors and facilitates competitive investments in various sectors of the Iranian economy.

Former UK foreign secretary Jack Straw and former French foreign minister Hubert Vedrine attended the London event and presented a lecture in support of removal of Iran's sanctions.
