Armenian Prime Minister Andranik Markaryan is paying a visit to
Ukraine. He met his Ukrainian counterpart, Viktor Yanukovych,
today. In particular, the parties noted that both countries had
tremendous potential for developing bilateral trade.

The Armenian prime minister also stated that Ukraine could take
part in bidding for the construction of a gas pipeline to Iran. He
noted, however, that a technical and economic feasibility study of
the project was still being prepared, so details of the possible
participation of Ukrainian companies in building the pipeline had
not been discussed yet.
