    ARMENIA DOESN'T MEDIATE TALKS ON UPPER LARS CHECKPOINT

    "If Russia and Georgia come to terms in negotiations on Upper Lars
    checkpoint's opening, Armenia will only welcome this developing,"
    told Aysor's correspondent Armenia's Foreign Ministry spokesman,
    Tigran Balayan.

    Armenia is not an official mediator in negotiations between Georgia
    and Russia, so Armenia's Foreign Ministry has no detailed information
    related to last developments in the process.

    On November 13 Georgia's Security Council made a decision to open Upper
    Lars checkpoint at Russia-Georgia border. The checkpoint closed in 2006
    by Russian-made decision, conditioned by 'some reconstruction'. This
    led to a deep reduction in exporting of Georgian goods as well as it
    much influenced supply to Armenia. Upper Lars checkpoint provided 30%
    of land freight to Armenia.
