Armenia suspected in having bank ties with Iran in violation of
unilateral US sanctions
The Islamic Republic of Iran pressure from international sanctions is
seeking to expand banking activities in Armenia. On this occasion,
Reuters printed an article according to which Iran is interested in
neighboring Armenia.
Armenian officials deny any information about banking relationships
with Iran. Despite that, US officials regularly threaten their
Armenian partners to engage in a more rigorous financial control,
Tert.am reports.
Reuters also recalls that the construction of a gas pipeline from Iran
to Armenia will be completed in 2014, and Iranian President Mahmoud
Ahmadinejad said earlier that the annual trade turnover between
Armenia and Iran is $ 1 billion.
