BEIJING, September 28 -- Armenia is "sincerely interested" in China's
economic presence in the region, Armenian President Robert Kocharyan
said here on Tuesday. He finished talks with Chinese chairman Hu
Jintao during his state visit to China.
According to Kocharyan, Armenia is ready to serious cooperation with
China. He noted that the range of bilateral economic relations is
quite wide. "It should be taken into account that both countries
do not have disputable economic problems, and their approaches are
close on many topical international issues," the Armenian leader
emphasised. "Armenia is very interested in the Chinese experience
and successes of economic reforms," he pointed out.
According to the president, "it is also important for bilateral
economic cooperation that Armenia and China are members of the World
Trade Organisation and have the similar trade regime."
As an example of successful bilateral economic relations Kocharyan
cited the setting up of the joint production of synthetic rubber
in China with the equipment and technologies of the Yerevan-based
research-and-production amalgamation Nairit.
