    Georgia's debt engagements to Armenia remained unclear. Georgia did
    not recognize its state debt of $6 million it had to pay within the
    framework of an agreement between the Ministry of Energy and Fuel of
    Georgia and Armenergo for the electric power supplied to Georgia in
    2000. Tbilisi states it has paid off the debt to the Armenian party,

    will study the issue in question in the course of a month. The
    parties did not manage to close the bargain over reduced tariffs for
    rail transport either. "A joint commission, will be formed to present
    economic arguments for rail transport reduced tariffs," Armenian Rail
    Department head Ararat Khrimian told journalists. It should be
    reminded that at present Armenia is granted 24% discount for oil
    products transportation and 17% reduction for the rest of cargo
    types.
