    President Serzh Sargsyan had a meeting with the President of Iran
    Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. During the meeting the Presidents of the two
    countries discussed issues related to bilateral relations, as a well
    as a broad framework of regional questions.

    The Presidents appreciated the level of dialogue and emphasized the
    importance of the efforts targeted at the deepening of friendship.

    Serzh Sargsyan noted that the Armenian-Iranian friendship and
    historical-cultural ties provide ground for deepening the cooperation
    between the two countries.

    According to Serzh Sargsyan, Iran has proved many times that it is a
    reliable and important partner for Armenia. "At moments of difficulty
    Armenia has always felt the support of Iran, and during the years
    of blockade Armenia has imported goods through Iranian territory,"
    the President said. As a proof of that the President pointed to the
    August events, when Armenia was transporting cargoes through the
    territory of Iran.

    Today the Presidents of Armenia will sign a memorandum on the
    construction of the Iran-Armenia railway. The Presidents of the two
    countries will give a joint press conference following the signing
    ceremony.

    At the request of the President of Iran, Serzh Sargsyan informed
    him about the political dialogue between Armenia and Turkey and the
    latest developments in the process of peaceful settlement of the
    Karabakh conflict.

    The interlocutors attached importance to the peaceful, negotiated
    solution of the issue. President Serzh Sargsyan thanked his Iranian
    counterpart for the balanced position of Iran on the Karabakh issue.
