Work continues “The British, French and German Ambassadors to Iran welcomed representatives from INSTEX and E3 technical experts to Tehran this week for discussions with the relevant Iranian experts and counterparts. These discussions, funded by the EU TAIEX instrument, have helped to advance our collective efforts to ensure trade with Iran that is compliant with EU and international law can continue, including through the special purpose vehicle “INSTEX”.” “We understand the economic pressure the Iranian people are facing. We are committed to working with Iran to deliver INSTEX’s first transaction as quickly as possible. Expert exchanges of this nature are the best way to move us closer towards delivering on our shared goal to facilitate legitimate trade and economic relations with Iran. In light of the above, both sides have agreed a roadmap to expedite progress.” https://www.gov.uk/government/news/iran-statement-on-expert-talks-from-e3-ambassadors

The Dutch have been actively involved - hoping we find out WSGs involvement soon TEHRAN - Kjell Kloosterziel, the head of steering committee at the Netherlands Airport Consultants (NACO), paid a visit to a newly-constructed passenger terminal in the Imam Khomeini International Airport, on a high note on Monday, saying that he felt it has been a success. The Salaam International Terminal is a successful project for the country’s airport industry, Kloosterziel said. In an interview with IKAC news service Kloosterziel said: “Despite U.S. sanctions against Iran and creating difficult conditions for this country, we are keen on boosting relationship with Iran and I am proud of Iranians for building a new beautiful terminal for passengers at the Imam Khomeini Airport City.” http://www.tehrantimes.com/news/435529/NACO-director-calls-Iran-s-new-passenger-terminal-a-success

Sorry trials could be earlier and not in 3 months time as domestic flights could kick off first https://financialtribune.com/articles/domestic-economy/98066/tehrans-ikia-airport-to-operate-domestic-flights

Looks like a shift to ‘domestic firms’ supporting the construction process in view of Trump’s actions https://www.ikac.ir/corporate/en/News-and-Media/News/ID/1467/The-salaam-International-Terminal-have-been-set-up-completely-by-domestic-firms

Presume this will be their trial run which will be in 3 months time? https://twitter.com/TehranAirport/status/1133673972250292224 “Imam Khomeini Airport City (IKAC) ready for Hajj 2019 TEHRAN– A top official of Imam Khomeini Airport City (IKAC) have announced that about 29,000 Hajj pilgrims will be dispatched to Saudi Arabia via this airport.”

Finally ready for inauguration but with timing and the ongoing shenanigans hhhmmm.... I guess the main bit is “installation of equipment” which can only happen once payment is received (all depends INSTEX)??? “Imam Khomeini Airport’s Salam Terminal is ready for inauguration, managing director of Imam Khomeini Airport City Company Ali Rostami said after a visit to the new terminal on Saturday. According to the official, the construction phase of the terminal has been completed and only a few steps remain, including the installation of equipment, the Ministry of Roads and Urban Development's news service reported.
