The fifth annual Russian-Armenian industrial exhibition opened in
Yerevan on Wednesday.
The Expo-Russia-Armenia-2012 exposition features industrial and
agricultural products of dozens of Russian and Armenian enterprises
and demonstrates the possibilities of their economies.
A "Eurasian Breakthrough" business forum will take place on the
exhibition's sidelines.
"Russia remains Armenia's biggest trade and economic partner," Ovik
Abramyan, the speaker of the Armenian parliament, said, opening the
exhibition, which in his words was a floor for establishing mutually
beneficial business and friendly ties, forwarding new ideas and
carrying out interesting business initiatives.
"Russia and Armenia, that are strategic partners, have broader
opportunities for cooperation thanks to the solid foundation of
reciprocal ties and the commonness of economic agents," Abramyan went
on to say.
"Russian-Armenian economic ties have been developing successfully. The
presidents of Russia and Armenia noted that during their recent meeting
in the Kremlin," Sergei Katyrin, the president of the Russian Chamber
of Commerce and Industry, said in his address to the participants in
the exhibition.
"We have accumulated vast experience in all spheres of cooperation
by the 20th anniversary of establishment of diplomatic relations,"
Katyrin emphasized.
He said that Russia was number one partner for Armenia among its
foreign economic partners. "Russian businessmen actively invest in
the energy and banking sectors, telecommunications, and the mining
and construction industries," Katyrin said.
More than 1,300 enterprises with the Russian capital have been
registered in Armenia. "The accumulated volume of investments in the
republic's economy has reached 3 billion dollars," Katyrin went on to
say. He believes that industrial exhibition would produce a favorable
impact on bilateral cooperation and become an additional factor to
deepening economic integration.
