relatively new in Iran and international expertise is required to promote attention to these resources. Article 16 - No implementing measures. This is a very important article for Iran and all

Iran.Iran is willing to benefit from the positive aspects of biotechnology, while taking care of its possible
adverse effects. (Updated May 2001)
