/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "I consider that up to now Russia has not fulfilled
all conditions, based on which the Armenian enterprises were conveyed
to it within the framework of the Property for Debt Agreement," said
Co-Chair of the Armenian-Russian Inter-Governmental Commission for
Economic Cooperation, Russian Minister of Transport Igor Levitin. The
Minister stated it when answering the question on fulfillment of
obligations to run the enterprises Armenia had conveyed to Russia
within the framework of the Property for Debt Agreement. In his words,
Russia has not determined yet whether to produce military or civil
destination output at these enterprises. "Thus, we agreed to create
a working group over launching these enterprises," Levitin said.
He informed that "yesterday and today the working group held its first
meetings and they have also reached a specific plan of measures over
production types." He hoped for the group to report to the co-chairs on
the type of the production in the course of the next meeting. "Russia
understands its responsibility for these enterprises, we were to
organize their functioning and it is one of the points Russia has not
fulfilled yet," I. Levitin said. The protocol of the working group
first session titled "For securing efficient work of enterprises
Armenia conveyed to Russia" is available, he also reported. "The
first document is signed today," he reported. Answering the question
whether the enterprises will produce military items, Levitin said
"when assuming ownership of these enterprises we did not plan to launch
works on producing military destination goods there." At the same time
he noted that the enterprises are property of the Russian Federation,
"thus a question like that will not prevent production of these goods."
