    Armenia neutral on Georgia's gas pipeline privatisation issues


    By Messenger Staff Friday, July 16
    Armenia does not care if the pipeline connecting Russia with Armenia
    passing through Georgia is privatised and sold. Georgia wanting to
    sell the pipeline does not mean that it will actually be sold and it
    will have no impact in Armenia in any case, stated Armenia's Energy
    and Natural Resources Minister Armen Movsisian at a July 14 press
    conference.

    Three non-Georgian companies, Russia's Gazprom, Kazakhstan's
    KazMunaiGas and Azerbaijan's SOCAR have already expressed interest in
    the pipeline. The ruling party's interest in selling this pipeline has
    become the subject of serious concern and criticism from the
    opposition, NGOs and independent analysts.
