    ARMENIA'S AVIATION SPHERE IS BEING LIBERALIZED

    Government of Armenia is shifting to open skies policy. The concept
    note on the liberalization of air transport was introduced at today's
    session of the government.

    Chief of Civil Aviation adjunct to the government, Artyom Movsisyan
    told reporters that the state is not going to sponsor any air company
    and the field will be free for all companies because sponsorship brings
    about the deterioration of the competitive field. Asked how the state
    sponsored Armavia, the official said that according to the agreement
    between the government of Armenia and Armavia, other companies would
    be allowed to enter the field, only after Armavia rejected to carry
    out that flight.

    According to the concept note, three groups of airways will be set up
    and competition in this regard will be held. Exceptionally Armenian
    companies will take part in the competition. But the companies may
    have also foreign shareholders.

    In the result of the competition to be held in a month, three
    companies will be able to work for five years. If they result unable
    to work without the state's support, they will be replaced by foreign
    companies.

    Artyom Movsisyan said that further competitions will be held to
    enlarge the geography of airways.
