Argentina will provide Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh with technical
assistance for developing agricultural production, with two bilateral
Master Technical Cooperation Agreements already completed and ready to
be signed by the Governments of Armenia and Argentina, Eduardo
Eurnekian, Argentinean businessman of Armenian origin, said during the
opening of a new passenger terminal at the Yerevan Zvartnots Airport
on Saturday.
Referring to Argentinean President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner,
Eurnekian said that Argentina will provide Armenia with human and
technical resources to develop, execute and operate new water supply,
distribution and irrigation systems.
"These new initiatives will help Armenia accomplish its objective of
fully developing its agricultural potential," Eurnekian said.
The first agreement will extend the services of experts from the
Argentine State Water Agency, which manages the drinkable water supply
and sewage treatment for the City of Buenos Aires.
The second agreement is about Agricultural and Livestock Cooperation,
which will provide substantive support related to production,
innovative technology, rural development, commercialization and
promotion of bilateral economic relations in this sector.
Finally, a Memorandum of Cooperation will be signed between the Union
of Industrialists of Armenia and Argentina.
To note, Eduardo Eurnekian is the concessionaire of the Yerevan
Zvartnots Airport and has so far invested a total of $320mln in its
modernization. He also owns vast vineyards and orchards in Armenia.
According to the National Statistical Service of Armenia, in Jan-June
2011 Armenia invested $5.8mln in Armenia's economy (1.4% of the total
investments and 25.6% more than a year before).
