YEREVAN
Yerevan, July 23, ARMENPRESS: During the meeting with the
newly-appointed Ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Iran Mohammad
Reisi, the Armenian Agriculture Minister Sergo Karapetyan attached
importance to the further expansion of bilateral connections,
especially in the spheres of plant growing and cattle-breeding.
"Armenpress" was informed about this in the Ministry of Agriculture.
"Here there are great unused opportunities. Last year I was in Islamic
Republic of Iran on official visit and signed a memorandum of mutual
understanding on bilateral cooperation. Unfortunately, the required
work on this important document is still not enough. I wish that
with the ambassador's support we fulfill the obtained agreements,
as a first step creating a slaughterhouse complex with "Halal"
trademark in Armenia", noted the minister.
Expressing his gratitude for the warm reception, the Ambassador
expressed readiness to continue the consistent implementation of
the agreements reached in the past and contribute to the further
deepening of bilateral cooperation. Minister Sergo Karapetyan reminded
that in the Armenian-Iranian intergovernmental commission meeting
on trade-economic issues to be held in Yerevan, issues related to
agriculture are included, so the Armenian side suggested to invite
the Minister of Agriculture of the Islamic Republic.
