ministers of the TRACECA Europe-Caucasus-Asia Tranpsort Program member
states was held in Baku on December 4. The RA minister of transport
and comunication Gurgen Sargsyan stated during the December 5 press
conference that the Armenian delegation was led by the head of the
ministry's external relations department, resident representative of
Armenia to TRACECA, national secretary Gagik Grigorian.
The minister said there were two main issues on the agenda: the
role of TRACECA program in the extension of trans-European transport
networks to neighboring countries, particularly in the development

According to G. Sargsyan, the conference participants welcomed this
