    Yerevan, 18 April: Armenian Prime Minister Andranik Markaryan today
    received a delegation led by Perm governor Oleg Chikunov.

    During the meeting the sides noted growth in inter-regional cooperation
    between Armenia and Russia, the press service of the Armenian
    government has told Arminfo news agency. In this connection, Andranik
    Markaryan expressed the hope that the visit of the Perm delegation
    will play a serious role in boosting cooperation with Armenia in the
    field of trade and economy where there is unexplored potential.

    The prime minister noted that to that end it is important to
    intensify business contacts, exchange economic information, discuss
    the possibility of cooperation and establish joint enterprises,
    especially joint small and medium-size businesses.

    The sides noted that tourism, science, culture and education were
    the most promising spheres of cooperation, especially if the Armenian
    diaspora of Perm, which is represented in the regional administration
    and is engaged in business, would get actively involved.

    Armenia's regions are cooperating within the framework of
    inter-regional agreements with Leningrad, Saratov, Astrakhan,
    Sverdlovsk and Kirov regions, Krasnodar Territory, and the Moscow
    government.

    The volume of trade between Armenia and Russia in 2004 totalled
    266.2m dollars.
