Hundreds of foreign oil companies are taking part in a major
industry exhibition that opened in Tehran on Saturday, making a mockery
of U.S. and European Union efforts to impose sanctions on Iran’s oil and
gas industry, according to an article by
Ken Timmerman published by Newsmax.

Organizers of the 16th annual oil and gas industry exhibition in
Tehran expect to welcome more than 1 million visitors from Iran and
around the region, and boast that they have attracted 460 foreign
companies to attend.

“In this exhibition, [the number of] participating countries and
foreign companies has increased by 20 and 22 percent respectively as
compared to the previous year,” exhibition manager Hossein Porsan told
the state-run Islamic Republic News Agency.

Companies showing their wares - either directly or through their
Iranian agents - came from Austria, Spain, Australia, England, Italy,
Germany, Turkey, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Russia, France, the
Netherlands, Norway, India, Singapore, Japan, China, Taiwan, Thailand,
Saudi Arabia, Canada, and Brazil, Porsan said.
