PanARMENIAN.Net - Armenia International Airports CJSC and Armavia
Air Company have reached an agreement by signing a contract.
Armenia International Airports CEO Marcelo Vende told the journalists
on March 15 that they had meetings during the past 4 days with the
working group set up by Armavia and the Armenian Prime Minister Tigran
Sargsyan, in an attempt to find a mutually beneficial solution to
this problem.
"There have been many rumors over this dispute during the recent
days; we decided to make no comment until an agreement is reached,"
Vende said.
Deputy manager of Armenia International Airports CJSC Andranik Shkhyan
informed that the March 15 agreement meets all demands put forward by
Armavia. "We expect the schedule for debt payment to be maintained,"
he said.
Legal adviser of the Armenia International Airports Armen Ter-Tachatyan
noted that the debt totaling to USD 5 mln 300 thous has accumulated
during 6 months. "We expect the debt to be paid off by September. We've

debt unacceptable, and getting this money back is a priority for us,"

new strategy which will enable them paying off the debt as soon
as possible.
