While meeting the Iranian Foreign Minister on March 11 Armenian
Prime Minister Tigran Sarkisian stated that the Iran-Armenia railway
construction would be important not for the two countries alone but
the entire region. Iran and Armenia are cooperating in different areas
including transportation, energy supplies and road construction which
stimulate the implementation of new projects. Today there are different
projects being negotiated such as the construction of railways between
the two countries and the building of a hydro electro power station
on the river Araks and terminal for oil products in Armenia.
Armenian Parliament Speaker Ovik Abramian has stated that Armenia's
losses during the Georgian-Russian war would have been much greater
if not for Iran's support. The Speaker added that Iran has always
been a good neighbour of Armenia.
