collaboration, stressing that Tehran and Yerevan should expand their
relations in educational and scientific fields.
Referring to expansion of economic cooperation between Iran and
Armenia, Markarian asserted that implementation of big economic
projects will positively influence regional relations.
Haji, for his part, noted that enhanced scientific and educational
cooperation between the two countries is very significant. He also

should be qualitatively improved. Haji is presently on a three-day
tour to Armenia.
In another meeting with the head of Armenia's Presidential
Office, Artash Tumanyan and the Armenian co-chair of the joint

as positive.
He urged the need to expand collaboration in the domains of science
and research within the framework of the joint economic commission.
Tumanyan maintained that Iran's significant regional status is of great
importance in Armenia's foreign relations. "Since a considerable number
of Iranian students are currently studying in Armenian universities,
special attention should be paid to broadening cooperation in the
field," he concluded.
