    ARMENIAN ENVOY UNDERSCORES DEVELOPMENT OF CULTURAL TIES WITH IRAN

    Fars News Agency, Iran
    Sept 30 2011

    TEHRAN (FNA)- Armenian Ambassador to Tehran Grigor Arakelyan underlined
    the good and close relations between Tehran and Yerevan, and called for
    the further expansion of the bilateral ties, specially cultural fields.

    "Armenia is so keen to have more expansive relations with Iran in
    cultural field," Arakelyan said in a meeting with the governor-general
    of Isfahan province on Friday.

    He expressed dissatisfaction with the current scale of the ties between
    Yerevan and Isfahan which are sister cities, and called on Isfahan's
    governor-general to hold Yerevan's culture week in the Iranian city.

    Iran and Armenia have taken major strides to promote their bilateral
    relations in the last few years. The bilateral trade volume between
    the two states stands at nearly $270 million, a figure that is expected
    to rapidly climb in a near future, according to officials.

    Iran and Armenia have mainly expanded cooperation in power and gas
    swap in recent years.

    Iran mainly exports natural gas to Armenia and imports power supplies
    from the Caucasian state through two transfer lines with a total
    power transfer capacity of 220kw/ph at present.
