CHINA, ARMENIA INTERESTED IN JOINT MAJOR PROJECTS - FOREIGN MINISTRY
YEREVAN, May 30. /ARKA/. China and Armenia are interested and willing
to implement a number of bilateral projects, Armenia's deputy minister
of foreign affairs Sergey Manasaryan said.
Armenia is currently negotiating over possible involvement of Chinese
companies in infrastructure projects of strategic importance to
Armenia, on construction of motor and rail roads in particular,
the deputy minister said in the parliament.
The Chinese side intends to implement a complete reconstruction
and re-equipping at Public TV of Armenia. It is a huge project,
Manasaryan said.
The deputy minister also said the Chinese party is keen on expanding
its involvement in Armenia's IT, and efforts are made in this
direction.
"We expect a response from the Chine side on another big project
- creating a Chinese school in Armenia that will be of regional
importance', the deputy minister said.
It is difficult to say what level of Armenia's involvement in bilateral
relations will be satisfactory, bearing in mind China's potential,
Manasaryan said. The cooperation is developing, he said.
In 2013 Chinese foreign trade amounted to 4.16 trillion dollars,
an increase of 7.6% compared to the year before. Chinese exports
rose by 7.9% to 2.21 trillion dollars in 2013; imports grew by 7.3%
to 1.95 trillion dollars. -0--
