YEREVAN, March 23 -- The coming working visit by Russian President
Vladimir Putin to Armenia and opening of Year of Russia in Armenia will
be a new impetus for the further development of bilateral relations
which are already at a high level. This idea was repeatedly emphasized
at meetings which Governor of the Sverdlovsk Region Eduard Rossel
held here on Tuesday.
Receiving the guest, Armenian President Robert Kocharyan advocated
"combining the economic potential of the republic and the region". He
suggested specifying in what directions the two sides can enter markets
of each other, to think of restoring contacts between machine-builders
and machine-tool builders of Armenia and similar enterprises in the
Sverdlovsk Region.
The governor proposed at a meeting with Armenian premier Andranik
Margaryan that an Armenian Trade House should be opened in
Yekaterinburg, the administrative center of the Sverdlovsk Region. To
encourage cooperation, he voiced support for mounting exhibitions of
goods from Armenia and establishment of joint ventures.
Armenia established active trade and economic relations with 25
subjects of the Russian Federation in the past few years. For instance,
it concluded agreements on cooperation with the Leningrad, Saratov,
Astrakhan and Kirov regions as well as with the Krasnodar Territory
and the Moscow city government.
