YEREVAN, November 10. /ARKA/. Nikolay Rizhkov, a member of Russian
Federation Council (upper chamber) and co-chair of Armenian-Russian
inter-parliamentary commission, thinks Armenian railways have great
room for development.
"Plenty has been done for railway development in Armenia since my
last year's visit to this country. I am glad that railway transport
got a new impetus in Armenia. I hope for its further development,"
he said Monday at his meeting with South-Caucasian Railways' workers.
Rizhkov pointed out the personal contribution of South-Caucasian
Director General Shevket Shaydullin to development of railways
in Armenia.
In his opinion, railway transport is vigorously developing in
Armenia now.
He said dilapidated and dysfunctional railways in Armenia have been
revived and have already started operating.
South-Caucasian Railway, fully owned by the Russian Railways Company,
is the concession manager of the Armenian Railway Company.
Armenian Railway has been handed over to the South-Caucasian Railways
CJSC for 30 years with a right for one-decade prolongation.
