side at September 26 press conference.
The Armenian delegation succeeded to pass four proposals in the
committee. The Armenian MPs expressed concern in connection with
opening the railway avoiding Armenia, which will cause unfavourable
conditions for our country and the region. The Armenian side
brought arguments in favour of the effectiveness of re-operating
the Kars-Gyumri-Tbilisi-Baku railway, proposing to make it TRASECA

be required and millions of tons of freight will be provided.
According to report publication, Rules of Procedure of Assembly,
assignments directed to the authorities of BSEC member countries.

substructures was proposed to support to the national parliaments
and governments, by which the interests of the region and the very
country will be taken into account.
