    YEREVAN, MARCH 22, ARMENPRESS: Prime minister Andranik Margarian
    received today members of a Russian delegation, headed by the
    governor of Sverdlovsk province Eduard Rossel. Russian and Armenian
    officials were quoted by the government press office as saying that
    Russian Putin's visit to Armenia later this week will give a new
    incentive to further strengthening of diverse bilateral ties.
    Margarian said Armenia expects the visit of the delegation to give
    a fresh muscle to advancing cooperation between Armenia and the
    Russian province. He said Armenia has established vivid trade
    relations with 25 Russian provinces.
    Governor Rossel who contributed to rehabilitation of the
    earthquake zone in late 1980-s, spoke highly of the Armenian
    community in his province. Andranik Margarian and Eduard Rossel
    discussed also a range of other issues.
    Also Martin Sarkisian, the president of Armenian Commerce and
    Industry Chamber, welcomed today chief managers of several industrial
    enterprises in the Russian province of Sverdlovsk who have arrived
    here together with the provincial governor to explore ways to expand
    cooperation with Armenian counterparts.
    Addressing participants of a joint business forum, Sarkisian said
    it was evidence of their interest towards Armenian counterparts.
    Larisa Scharf, deputy economic minister of the Russian province,
    said the trade between Armenia and the province last year amounted to
    $3 million, but added there are all chances to double and triple it.
