    Region

    Russia, Azerbaijan and Iran have signed an agreement of building
    Khazvin-Resht-Enzeli-Astara railroad within the framework of
    North-South corridor program. It's envisaged that the railway will
    stretch 375 km. A consortium with $200 million as each parties share
    was established.

    Mediamax agency reminds that on February 17, 2005, RA prime minister
    Andranik Margarian expressed his worry to Russia's foreign minister
    Sergey Lavrov over the fact that the planned railroad will pass
    Armenia by.

    Sergey Lavrov assured that "Russia will consider Armenia's interests
    and will not take steps damaging them" while implementing its
    transportation projects. Russian foreign minister also note that he
    will convey Armenian PM's concern to Russian transport minister and
    the head of Russian railways.
