/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Iran -Armenia railway construction is the most
significant project ever implemented by joint efforts of Iran and
Armenia, Garnik Asatryan ESU Iranology Department Head told a news
conference in Yerevan.
"Armenia-Iran railway construction should have been launched long
ago. This is a serious project which might herald a new Silk Route
and allow Armenia to break out of isolation.
Geographically, the railway construction is not an easy task, requiring
consistence on behalf of RA and Iranian authorities."
On Mar. 3 in Yerevan a Draft Memorandum of Understanding on
Iran-Armenia railway construction was signed between Armenia and
Iran. The railway will be 470 km long, with 410 km of the main line
passing trough Armenia's territory. Iran-Armenia railway construction
