Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan wrapped up a two-day visit to
Iran on April 14. The visit featured closed-door talks with top
Iranian leaders, including President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. According
to the Arminfo news agency, the two countries are pursuing joint
infrastructure projects, in particular a potential 470-kilometer
railway to link the two countries.
Sargsyan arrived in Iran on April 13 on a two-day visit. In addition
to the potential railway project, which would ease Armenia's current
isolation, due to a Turkish economic blockade, Sargsyan and Ahmadinejad
reportedly discussed a deal to build two hydropower stations on the
Araks River.
"I'm sure that the [verbal] agreements reached in the course of the
discussion will translate into written agreements," Sargsyan told
reporters in Tehran on April 14.
