TEHRAN, JULY 6, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. Relations between
Iran and Armenia are friendly, stable and developing. President of
Islamic Republic of Iran (IRI) Mahmoud Ahmadinejad declared this
at the July 5 press conference held after the ceremony of signing
bilateral documents within the framework of Armenian President Robert
Kocharian's two-day working visit to Tehran.
According to reports of Armenian and Iranian media, the Iranian
President expressed the hope that the signed documents will be a big
step in the direction of further development of interrelations of
the two countries. 7 instead of 5 planned documents on partnership
were signed as a result of the negotiations - "Memorandum of Mutual
Understanding Between Iranian and Armenian Governments on Aid Provided
by Iran for Armenia's Development," "2006-2011 Cooperation Program of
Preservation of Cultural Heritage Between Armenian Ministry of Culture
and Youth Affairs and Iranian Organization of Cultural Heritage and
Tourism," "Contract Attached to Financing Agreement of High-Volt
Electric Conductivity 3rd Line," "Agreement on Legal Cooperation
Between Armenia and Iran by the Civil and Criminal Code," "Mutual
Understanding Memorandum Between Armenian and Iranian Ministries
of Energy," "On Financing of Construction of the High-Volt Electric
Conductivity Line Between Armenia and Iran."
In response to the question, how much these documents will contribute
to promotion of Iranian investments in Armenia, RA President Robert
Kocharian emphasized that the first precondition for the investments
is the formation of a full-value legal-contractual field. He mentioned
that the signed agreements replenished over 100 bilateral documents
ratified earlier.
As Robert Kocharian evaluated, the mutual disposition of both countries
is very favorable and this is one of the single cases in history
when neighboring countries have no disputable issues as a heritage
of history.
The same day the delegation led by the Armenian President had a
meeting with Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki and Secretary
of Iranian National Security Supreme Council Ali Larijani. At the
meetings, discussing international and regional issues, the sides
stressed that the Nagorno Karabakh conflict should be solved with
the mediation of the OSCE Minsk Group, as well as expressed the hope
that the disagreements relating to the Iranian nuclear technologies
will have a good end.
The delegation also visited Imam Khomeyni's tomb, where RA President
laid a wreath and made notes in the book of honorable guests.
