TEHRAN - Iran and Armenia have held talks on ways to faster implement
joint agreements and discussed plans to expand economic cooperation
in the future.
In a meeting with Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sargsian in Yerevan on
Thursday, Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki said cooperation
in energy, transportation and communication will open a new chapter
in bilateral relationship.
Mottaki had visited Yerevan on Tuesday to take part in the 9th Iran
and Armenia Joint Economic Commission.
Cutting down on the customs bureaucracy will help expand trade
exchanges between the two neighbors, Mottaki suggested.

with its infrastructure projects such as constructing roads, railways,
pipelines and power plants.
Sargsian said that Armenia attaches great importance to the agreements
signed between the two countries, adding the implementation of these
agreements will help promote ties.
He went on to say that Armenia prioritizes implementing railway
projects and expressed hope that the pipeline and road projects will
begin this year.

livestock industry with Iran, he added
