Iran-Armenia Pipeline Construction Ends
TEHRAN (FNA)- Construction work has been finished on Iran-Armenian
pipeline.
Armenian specialists are now dealing with the technical issues for the
construction of pipeline from Kacharan, the boundary region to
Yerevan, Iranian sources said.
Testing of transportation of Iranian gas will begin within the next
few days.

gas from Tehran through this pipeline a year," Armenian Minister of
