Iran’s top diplomat on Wednesday offered Ecuador a credit line of $100 million for the reconstruction of areas affected by an earthquake earlier this year.
Mohammad Javad Zarif announced the deal during a joint press conference with Ecuadoran officials while in the South American country that was devastated by a magnitude-7.8 tremor that killed nearly 300 victims in April.
Zarif’s host counterpart, Guillaume Long, said the credit line could be used in different areas, such as science, technology and research.
