YEREVAN, September 8 -- Armenia and Iran can jointly build a road to
the North and step up bilateral and multilateral trade and economic
cooperation, Iranian President Sayed Mohammad Khatami said.
In a meeting with Armenian Prime Minister Andranik Margaryan
on Wednesday, Khatami, who is in Yerevan on an official visit,
expressed the hope that experts of the two countries would find the
best decisions on how to connect the North and the South.
In his view, well-maintained roads in Armenia and, in the future, a
Kajaran-Meghri tunnel in the southeast of the country could be useful.
The president stressed that the development of individual countries
and the region as a whole was possible only if there is peace,
stability and security.
"We consider Armenia our neighbour and a friendly country, and we want
to make our friendship an example for others to follow," Khatami said.
