/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The terms of launching the Iran-Armenia gas pipeline
are postponed because of technical problems, said Armenian Foreign
Minister Vartan Oskanian to a news conference in Yerevan. In his words,
the launching of the gas pipeline was planned on December 26. In fact,
the pipeline is already ready, but the test works have not been carried
out yet. The Iranian side intends to do that at the earliest possible
date, and already till the Iranian New Year holidays - till March of
2007, the pipeline will be put into operation," Oskanian said.
He also mentioned that the issue of exploration in the Armenian side
of the pipeline is in the process of discussion. In his words, the
handover of pipeline's management to "ArmRosGazprom" would be the
most logical solution. "Iran is interested in all programs in the
sphere of gasification and via negotiations an acceptable solution
to this problem will be found," said the RA FM.
