Yerevan. (Interfax) - The construction of the Armenian section of its
gas pipeline with Iran is expected to begin by the end of October,
Armenian Ambassador to Iran Geram Garibdzhanian told Interfax.
A contract envisioning an Iranian credit for building the gas
pipeline's Armenian sector and a treaty on construction works at
this sector by Iran's Sanir company are only the first steps in
Iran's assistance to Armenia in this project, the ambassador said,
declining to provide further details.
Three Armenian-Iranian intergovernmental documents were signed during
Iranian President Mohammad Khatami's official visit to Yerevan on
Wednesday. They include a memorandum on mutual understanding and
cooperation between the Energy Ministries of Armenia and Iran, an
agreement on a $30 million credit to be issued by Export Development
Bank of Iran to the Armenian Energy Ministry and a treaty making the
Iranian Sanir company subcontractor of the project aimed at building
the Armenian section of the gas pipeline.
