Transport and Communication it will be run by the Russian Railway
Open Joint Stock Company. According to RA Minister of Transport and
Communication Andranik Manukyan, the Armenian railway will remain
the property of the state. In his words, the Russian side will run
the railway more effectively.
The Russian company suggests investing $570 million for the
reconstruction and exploitation of the Armenian railway. According
