buses. In accordance with the business plan it submitted, the
leaseholder will have to manufacture buses, by investing Armenian
drams equivalent to $7 million, over the course of seven years. But
the name of this company is not known too much.
According to the ministry, the aforesaid Indian company will
manufacture the buses in Armenia. As for MED A.KGmbH, this is probably
