    Armenian president welcomes Russian purchase of ailing plant

    ITAR-TASS News Agency
    June 15, 2004 Tuesday

    YEREVAN, June 16 -- Armenian President Robert Kocharyan welcomed the
    purchase by a Russian company of a controlling stake in the domestic
    synthetic rubber plant that faces a financial plight.

    Board chairman of the Volgaburmash machine-building enterprise Andrei
    Ischuk told Kocharyan Tuesday his company is completing a deal to buy
    a controlling interest in the Yerevan-based Nairit chemical enterprise
    that produces synthetic rubber.

    Kocharyan expressed hope Volgaburmash will be a stable and reliable
    partner for Armenia.

    Founded in 1936 Nairit faced financial problems and had to periodically
    stop production in the past 10-12 years, according to plant director
    Sergei Muradyan.

    Ischuk said Nairit has all the grounds for profitable production. An
    investment program worth several dozen million dollars and a
    rehabilitation business plan have already been designed.
