Armenia will increase the import of natural gas from Russia by 25
percent in 2005, representative of the joint-stock company
"ArmGazprom" Karen Karapetyan told journalists on Tuesday.

with the increased gas supplying of the republic and better
socio-economic situation in Armenia.

Armenia, and in 2005, the volume will amount to 1.7 billion cubic
meters.
