    Iran calls for expansion of ties with Armenia


    Tehran, 14 December: Visiting Armenian Minister of Energy and Natural
    Resources Armen Movsisyan conferred on Sunday [14 December] with
    Foreign Minister Manuchehr Mottaki on expansion of cooperation between
    the two countries.

    Movsisyan is also the Armenian head of Iran-Armenia Economic
    Commission which is to meet in Tehran.

    At the meeting, Mottaki expressed satisfaction with the termination of
    military conflicts in Ossetia noting that its aftermath will not harm
    Armenia anymore. He added that Iran and Armenia are true friends
    through hardship and happiness.

    On construction of oil and gas refinery, laying pipelines and
    construction of power plants and dams, Mottaki said that Tehran
    welcomes any projects the help improve the living standards of the
    people of border areas and will spare no efforts to help implement
    development and industrial projects in Armenia.

    Rendering more financial facilities for Iranian businessmen along with
    improving the methods for transit of Iranian-made goods to Armenia and
    the Caucasus would be vital for expansion of economic cooperation
    between the two countries.

    The Armenian minister, for his part, expressed satisfaction with the
    current level of relations between the two countries and expressed the
    hope that with the launching of Armenian consulate in Tabriz,
    cooperation between the two countries businessmen and industrialists
    will expand.
