ARMENIAN PREMIER TO HOLD NEGOTIATIONS IN MOSCOW ON FEB 27
An Armenian delegation led by Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan will pay
a one-day working visit to Russia on February 27, a source at the
Armenian government told Interfax on Thursday.
"The sides will discuss the fulfillment of the agreements reached at
the tenth meeting of the intergovernmental commission and ways to
build up trade and economic cooperation," the source said.
The delegation includes Finance Minister Tigran Davtian, Energy and
Natural Resources Minister Armen Movsisian, Transport and
Communications Minister Gurgen Sargsyan, Deputy Foreign Minister
Shavarsh Kocharian, head of the government office David Sargsyan,
Central Bank Deputy Chairman Vache Gabrielian and some other
officials.
The Armenian and Russian premiers will discuss topical aspects of
bilateral relations, including finance, fuel and energy, a source at
the Russian government told Interfax.
They will discuss the fulfillment of the agreements reached during
Sargsyan's Moscow visit of December 5, 2008, he said.
Economic contacts between Russia and Armenia are dynamic. The sides
are implementing joint investment projects in energy, processing
industries, banks, construction and transport. These projects add to
the republic's real sector and social sphere and promote the bilateral
economic integration, he said.
Russia tops the list of Armenian foreign economic partners. It is the
main trader and investor in Armenia. Bilateral trade grew by 9.5% to
nearly $900 million last year. Amassed Russian investments in Armenia
exceed $1.8 billion.
