All questions, concerning Iran and construction of Iran-Armenia
pipeline, have been solved or are being solved, Armenian Prime Minister
Andranik Margaryan stated, being interviewed by a REGNUM correspondent,
commenting on a statement of Iranian vice-ambassador to Armenia.
It is worth reminding that recently Iranian Vice-Ambassador to Armenia
Ali Akbar Jokar stated that the Iranian side had no information
about Russia's wish to take part in construction of the pipeline. The
vice-ambassador stated that information about handing over a section
of the Iran-Armenia pipeline to Gazprom was not confirmed at meetings
with top officials.
According to Andranik Margaryan, if Russia participates in the
pipeline's construction, "the fact will not influence the process."
It is worth stressing that the Iranian vice-ambassador stated recently
that Armenian-Iranian treaty on construction of the pipeline was not
changed anyhow. Ali Akbar Jokar pointed out that agreement of all
parties was a necessary prerequisite of changes.
